𝗦𝗼𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝘀 (𝟭𝟵𝟯𝟬-𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲)

There are roughly one million words in the English language, but still not enough to explain the beauty, transcendence, fun, wisdom, importance, sexiness, silliness, intellect and deep humanity of Sonny Rollins' music.

Anybody who experienced him playing live will know the heights that, not just 'jazz', but any improvised music can reach. We all owe him so much.

Now that he has gone, the true eyeball-to-eyeball experience of his art has gone as well - as with all live music, you had to be there.

But he's still there in all those recordings - go listen...

“𝙋𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙨𝙖𝙮, ‘𝙎𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙮, 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙞𝙩 𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙮, 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙣 𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠. 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙥𝙡𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙪𝙧𝙚. 𝙔𝙤𝙪’𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩 𝙎𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙮 𝙍𝙤𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙨; 𝙮𝙤𝙪’𝙫𝙚 𝙜𝙤𝙩 𝙞𝙩 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚.’ 𝙄 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠, ‘𝙒𝙚𝙡𝙡, 𝙨𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙬 𝙎𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙮 𝙍𝙤𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙨. 𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙄 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙜𝙤 𝙞𝙨 𝙗𝙚𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙙 𝙎𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙮 𝙍𝙤𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙨. 𝙒𝙖𝙮 𝙗𝙚𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙙”
