A landmark album from Sonny Rollins - a record that really lives up to its title, as it shows the maturing tenorist really finding his own voice in jazz - a sound that's unlike any other! Rollins' Riverside work sometimes seems to get overlooked sometimes in light of his freer late 50s playing on other labels - but this album's a real standout that shows that even with familiar material, Sonny can make magic happen in the way he phrases a tune and places a solo. Sonny's working here with a group that includes some hard-edged piano from Sonny Clark and some wonderfully inventive rhythm from Roy Haynes on drums - but Rollins is the real star in this quartet setting - shining throughout, in a mode that's incredibly economical, yet which speaks volumes with every note!A1 The Last Time I Saw Paris A2 Just In Time A3 Toot, Toot, Tootsie A4 What Is There To Say A5 Dearly Beloved B1 Every Time We Say Goodbye B2 Cutie B3 It Could Happen To You B4 Mangoes
