| | Sounds Like | The new CD, Sonny, Please, is a fine mix of Rollins originals and indelible standards from his boyhood. The assertive title track takes its name from ..something my wife [Lucille] always used to say: ..Sonny, please!....; ..Nishi.. was named for a bassist friend in Japan, and ..Park Plaza Parade.. for a now-defunct Spanish Harlem dance hall where many calypso artists once appeared.

..I am convinced that all art has the desire to leave the ordinary,.. Rollins said in a recent interview for the Catalan magazine Jaç, ..and to say it one way, at a spiritual level, a state of the exaltation at existence. All art has this in common. But jazz, the world of improvisation, is perhaps the highest, because we do not have the opportunity to make changes. It..s as if we were painting before the public, and the following morning we cannot go back and correct that blue color or change that red. We have to have the blues and reds very well placed before going out to play. So for me, jazz is probably the most demanding art..." | | Record Label | Doxy Records | | Type of Label | Indie |
