It's interesting to contrast Sonny Rollins' playing here, backed by the 1956 Miles Davis rhythm section, and his work with Ray Brown/Max Roach Incorporated. Certainly if Clifford Brown hadn't died that summer in an auto wreck, Rollins and his PLUS FOUR teammates would have continued to rival the creative output of the heralded Davis Quintet.
Here, Rollins and special guest John Coltrane get right down to it on the classic riff "Tenor Madness." Coltrane is still zeroing in on his sound, while Sonny has found his (for now). Coltrane chases the blue trains, the snakes and the wind on a fulminating solo, ending with a hint of "Stranger In Paradise." Rollins replies coyly--his sense of space and phrasing more akin to Miles--painting with clouds, patiently elongating his line out of dozens of little melodic motifs, teasing Philly Joe until he busts, finishing with a counterpunching flurry of his own. As Coltrane and Rollins trade riffs and choruses, you can hear them commenting favorably on each others' inventions until they're practically one voice.
For the remainder of TENOR MADNESS, Rollins contents himself to nurse the most possible melody and swing out of a few smokey orbs of sound, in the manner of mid '50s Lester Young. With "When Your Lover Has Gone" Sonny sets a relaxed groove atop Garland's magic chordal carpet, letting the action come to him, before giving way to a brilliant Chambers aria and a masterful Philly Joe solo. "Paul's Pal" and "My Reverie" are also given slow soulful treatments, while "The Most Beautiful Girl" concludes things at a brighter tempo, as Rollins toys with his beat like a cat with a mouse, before pouncing on it with Parker-ish rhythmic drive.
At a time when he was a member of the legendary Clifford Brown/Max Roach sextet, Sonny Rollins was still the apple fallen not too far from the tree of Miles Davis. Tenor Madness was the recording that, once and for all, established Newk as one of the premier tenor saxophonists, an accolade that in retrospect, has continued through six full decades. This straight reissue, an RVG Remasters Edition of the original album (clocking in at a scant 35 minutes with no bonus tracks) gives an indication why a

The content of Christmas with the Jazz Legends, Vol. 2 indicates that the compilation producer isn't particularly knowledgeable about jazz. What Lone Hill Jazz does best is reissuing long unavailable, valuable jazz sessions in their entirety. While this collection of holiday songs does feature a number of timeless jazz artists, many of the vocals are drenched in syrupy strings and dated choirs. There are worthwhile tracks. Billie Holiday makes "I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm" into a plausible Christmas song, though it was not recorded with that in mind. Kenny Burrell's rendition of "White Christmas" radiates warmth. Maynard Ferguson dashes through the snow with lots of Christmas cheer in "Jingle Bells," while Stan Kenton manages to avoid the predictable ...
