Recorded in April 1957, the saxophonist’s 2nd album for Alfred Lion, Vol. 2, found him in esteemed company with J.J. Johnson on trombone, Horace Silver on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Art Blakey on drums for a high-spirited bop date. The 6-song set opens with two rollicking Rollins originals (“Why Don’t I?” and “Wail March”) and closes with interpretations of two popular songs (“You Stepped Out Of A Dream” and “Poor Butterfly”). For the album’s two centerpieces, pianist Thelonious Monk joins the festivities for memorable versions of his compositions “Misterioso” and “Reflections.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA1 Why Don't I\u003cbr\u003eA2 Wail March\u003cbr\u003eA3 Misterioso\u003cbr\u003eB1 Reflections\u003cbr\u003eB2 You Stepped Out Of A Dream\u003cbr\u003eB3 Poor Butterfly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Note","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49814499983498,"sku":null,"price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0361\/4955\/9434\/files\/draft-270-8bd0c55dddd441f39bb5a52235613a6d.jpg?v=1785366513","url":"https:\/\/afkbooksandrecords.com\/products\/rollins-sonny-sonny-rollins-vol-2","provider":"AFK Books \u0026 Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
