More Info

This album was a result of Rollin's famous sabbatical where he sought to hone his improvisational skills by rehearsing on the bridge over the East River in NYC and trascend the confines of Hard Bop that defined much of the best jazz of the 1950's. Replacing the piano with the guitar of the wonderful Jim Hall, the result opened up the spaces within music and seemed to liberate Sonny not only on this brilliant record but in his approach.
