Description: | When Sonny Rollins arrived to Los
Angeles in early 1957, he discovered
that Ray Brown was also in town with
Oscar Peterson's trio and that Shelly
Manne was on hand leading a band
of his own. The result was a March 7,
1957 recording session, Way Out West,
which marked Rollins' very first date in
a trio setting and his first recording
without the accompaniment of a piano
or guitar. The saxophonist was at the
height of his career during this period
and in 1957 he was named the "New
Star" tenor saxophonist in the Down
Beat critics' poll. THE COMPLETE
ALBUM + 1 BONUS TRACK - Contains
new specially prepared liner notes by
Penguin Guide to Jazz's writer BRIAN
MORTON and by Paris' prestigious
JAZZ MAGAZINE. - Limited 180-gram red colored vinyl. "This album offers an unequalled opportunity on record to hear Rollins' tenor almost isolated from any other instrument. It is exceptionally well recorded, there is no piano, Manne's drums never intrude, and Brown in many places plays an obligato accompaniment." - Ralph J. Gleason |
