Sonny Rollins Vol. 2, his 1957 Blue Note session with J.J. Johnson, Horace Silver, Thelonious Monk, Paul Chambers and Art Blakey.
A hard bop all-star game: Sonny Rollins with J.J. Johnson on trombone, Paul Chambers on bass, Art Blakey on drums and not one but two pianists, Horace Silver and Thelonious Monk, who share the bench on "Misterioso".
Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in Hackensack on April 14, 1957, and produced by Alfred Lion, it mixes Rollins originals with Monk's "Misterioso" and "Reflections" and two standards. The cover is so iconic that Joe Jackson borrowed it for Body And Soul.
Essential Blue Note, no question.
