AMG REVIEW;

Review by Scott Yanow

Sonny Rollins recorded many memorable sessions during 1954-1958, but Saxophone Colossus is arguably his finest all-around set. Joined by pianist Tommy Flanagan, bassist Doug Watkins, and drummer Max Roach, Rollins debuts and performs the definitive version of "St. Thomas," tears into the chord changes of "Mack the Knife" (here called "Moritat"), introduces "Strode Rode," is lyrical on "You Don't Know What Love Is," and constructs a solo on "Blue Seven" that practically defines his style. Essential music that, as with all of Rollins' Prestige recordings, has also been reissued as part of a huge "complete" box set; listeners with a tight budget are advised to pick up this single disc and be amazed.

All of my lps are packed in LP mailers well sandwiched with the lp outside the jacket. Bubble wrapped with cardboard protectors. A 100% gaurantee on all LP's, if for any reason your not satisfied you get your money back! Lp's are play graded on my VPI HRX using either a Van Den Hull XGW or a Mono Titan from Lyra. Thanks for looking at my auction.


I take payment in about any form. Paypal is the easiest, however Money Order, Personal Check are fine. If you have any questions feel free to ask me.


I ship worldwide. LP's are seperated from jacket and packed in a re-sealable jacket. Lp's are shipped in a new cardboard lp mailer with bubble wrap and mailer inserts for protection.


Terms are easy, please pay me within a reasonable amount of time. Remember that I sell a lot of lp's, and it is just me. With four yr old twins and a full time job I go to the Post office twice a week. If for ANY reason your not happy with your purchase I offer a 100% gaurantee. Return it for your money back. This gaurantee is unconditional.
