A crackling bit of hardbop from Sonny Rollins - and a session that has Sonny playing with the Max Roach/Clifford Brown group that included Bud Powell's brother Richie on piano! Sonny had already made a strong name for himself on albums issued under the Roach/Brown tag at the time, and here the group returns the favor by allowing Sonny to lead, and by giving him a good deal of time in the spotlight! Rollins' solo ability is risen to a razor-sharp level for the set - really getting fire, and managing to invent at a speed and sharpness that's simply amazing.A1 Valse Hot 8:33 A2 Kiss And Run 7:07 B1 I Feel A Song Comin' On 5:11 B2 Count Your Blessing Instead Of Sheep 2:29 B3 Pent-Up House 8:51
