Title: great performance, live at the museum of modern art, 6/17/65
Review: this is a very powerful live performance (with a great band including two drummers) by the incomparable tenor sax giant sonny rollins. it's marred slightly by sonny's frequent strolling away from the microphone while continuing to play. this makes the drums (and the two fantastic drummers) very out front on the recording. sonny (of course) is one of the very best players in all of jazz and you always want to hear him out front but in this case the overall affect works very well indeed. it's intense and relaxing at the same time. i love it. personal: sonny (ts), tommy flanagan(p), bob cranshaw(b), billy higgins(ds), micky roker(ds). five songs, approx. 40 mins. long
