Sonny Rollins: East Broadway Run Down LP (Verve Acoustic Sounds Series)

Sonny Rollins

Impulse!, 1967

Recorded in 1966 and one of the true gems in the Rollins catalog, East Broadway Run Down sees Rollins venturing into moody and free-ish territory in the company of Jimmy Garrison on bass and Elvin Jones on drums. Trumpeter Freddie Hubbard joins the trio on the title track, making the album a compelling display of Rollins’ journeying into the unforeheard.
