Sonny Rollins' Night at the Village Vanguard
A live recording captures the improvisational artistry of this tenor saxophone giant.
This album, featuring Rollins' legendary performance at the Village Vanguard in 1957, captures him at the height of his creative power. Backed only by bass and drums, his tenor saxophone sings, speaks, and dances freely. It remains one of the greatest improvisational performances in jazz history.
