Newklear Music: The Songs of Sonny Rollins
Milestone

Pianist John Hicks, bassist George Mraz, and drummer Idris Muhammad have copped more than a few Sonny Rollins licks in their lifetimes. As one of few living jazz legends, saxophonist Rollins (aka Newk) has inspired generations of players. But this time out, the Keystone Trio is strictly aboveboard. Paying tribute to the jazzist-as-composer, it explores Newk�s oft-underrated and overlooked forte. Rollins�s song writing rivals that of Cole Porter: from calypso to ballad, his beautifully swinging oeuvre comes to life in the hands of a most synchronized, truly masterful rhythm section.
