Rollins, Sonny
Way Out West
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

Sealed OJC Reissue, No Hype Sticker On Shrink. Recorded By The Great Roy DuNann. A Small Possibility It Is The 2009 Repress. Few Very Tiny Dings On Jacket Mouth Edge. "The Timeless Way Out West Established Sonny Rollins As Jazz's Top Tenor Saxophonist (At Least Until John Coltrane Surpassed Him The Following Year). Joined By Bassist Ray Brown And Drummer Shelly Manne, Rollins Is Heard At One Of His Peaks On Such Pieces As "I'm An Old Cowhand (From The Rio Grande)," His Own "Way Out West," "There Is No Greater Love," And "Come, Gone" (A Fast Stomp Based On "After You've Gone"). The William Claxton Photo Of Rollins Wearing Western Gear (And Holding His Tenor) In The Desert Is Also A Classic." AMG - Scott Yanow.
