Sonny Rollins teams up with Thelonious Monk on this compilation of select tracks from three recording sessions in the early 50s. A rotating rhythm section keeps the tunes fresh. Monk’s signature harmonic eccentricity accents Rollins’ huge tenor sound perfectly and this disk shows what can happen between two masterful improvisers.
