Sonny Rollins very often reaches for the traditional and very popular musical themes Their simplicity gives a magic.Saxophone Colossus does not have to prove anything.His interpretation is the way of transmission of emotion.
Don't know what Pee Wee would have made of his old country number in the hands of this master of the sax - he would have probably loved it like we do. Thanks to jdauntless for naming the guitarist - I must find more of his stuff - he's a new name to me. Most excellent in every way.
Love the guitar!!!!

That's Jerome Harris on guitar. One of my all-time favorite jazz cuts.

Great job! Redd (Stewart, co-writer of the song) would be so proud!
Thank you!
