JAZZSTAGE.NET: Sonny Rollins and the Contemporary Leaders

Sonny Rollins and the Contemporary Leaders

This was Sonny's second Contemporary album and his second West Coast session, a year and a half after the historic Way Out West. Jazz labels acquire "personalities" not only from the musical tastes of the owner/recording director but also from the roster of musicians signed to the company. Read complete review from concordmusicgroup.com.

Personnel: Sonny Rollins (ts), Victor Feldman (vib), Hampton Hawes (p), Barney Kessel (g), Leroy Vinnegar (b), Shelly Manne (d). October 20, 21 22,1958 - Los Angeles
