THE SOUND OF SONNY shows everything that makes Sonny Rollins one of the titans of the tenor saxophone. He has a tone which can evoke heart-rending passions with a smoothness just this side of Ben Webster. Add to that the man's warm and playful sense of humor, and you've got a sax that's every bit a full and well-rounded emotional being. Without ever cheapening humor into novelty, it's a staple of his persona. This time out he finds the wacky joy in playing "Toot, Toot, Tootsie" as if it's some kind of after hours national anthem (this is, after all the same man who recorded "I'm An Old Cowhand" on his WAY OUT WEST album). The session boasts a superlative rhythm section of Sonny Clark on piano, Paul Chambers or Percy Heath on bass, and Roy Haynes on drums--all stellar players of the post-bop era.
Recorded at Reeves Sound Studios, New York, New York on June 11, 12 & 19, 1957. Originally released on Riverside (241). Includes liner notes by Orrin Keepnews.
Personnel: Sonny Rollins (tenor saxophone); Sonny Clark (piano); Percy Heath, Paul Chambers (bass); Roy Haynes (drums).

| | Thelonious Monk Monk's Music (1957) Super Audio CD
Sound Of Sonny music CDs
$18.19 
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
This historic 1957 session, beginning with Monk's favorite hymn ("Abide With Me") and ending with the composer's most affecting ballad ("Crepescule With Nellie"), functions as an overview of his career. As such, MONK'S MUSIC, Thelonious' fifth album for the Riverside label, is a shot across the bow of the hard bop movement.
A cubist intro by Monk and Wilbur Ware sets the tone for an extended seven-piece rendition of the pianist's classic "Well, You Needn't," with a fiery underpinning by Art Blakey. Monk is at his angular, bluesy best, opening with Charlie Christian-like percussive ...
| | Art Pepper Gettin' Together! (1960) Super Audio CD
Sound Of Sonny songs
$17.99
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
As a sort of follow-up to Art Pepper's matchup with Miles Davis's trio in the 1957 classic Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section, Pepper utilizes Davis's sidemen on this 1960 near-classic. In addition to pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Jimmy Cobb, trumpeter Conte Candoli makes the group a quintet on four of the eight numbers. The CD reissue adds "The Way You Look Tonight" (formerly only available on another LP) and an alternate take of the title cut to the original repertoire. This time around, rather than emphasizing standards, Pepper performs just three ("Softly, As in a Morning Sunrise," Thelonious Monk's "Rhythm-A-Ning" and "The Way You Look Tonight") and includes three originals ...

Sound Of Sonny CD music

NHANDA DEVI's unique voice arises from an inner sense of being.Her singing reflects the power of surrender, transcending the ego's limited personality and linking us to our true nature. This music creates a space of stillness and inner peace. Out of her experience Nhanda Devi inducted a special way to work with voice. In 1991 she initiated the 'Project Mystery Voice'. In her workshops she assists people to find their own unique way of self-expression. Her new release BRIDGE TO ISIS picks up where her prior recording CHANTS FROM ISIS left off and presents the listener with the essence of Nhanda¹ssoul with a clear message sung in a flowing, natural chant. The instrumentation on this recording comes from Nhanda herself performing on harp, gu-cheng, and other traditional ethnic ...
