Sonny Rollins Alfie's Theme 1973

believe it or not sonny looks older here then his yuonger vids

I'm just in love with this...

he's playing tomorrow in zagreb, croatia. looking so much forward to a great cool jazz evening!!!

Rina200534, use your ears dude!

Burt Bacharach is hardly a conventional hack, though. That was a win-win situation for the producer.

Man he can make his saxophone sing! man i wish i could play this but i can never find the sheets to it! he's so good! my new idol!!!!

where at?

Groningen, Nethertlands. But I think he is doing a small EUropean tour.

oliver nelson wrote the arrangements
based on sonny's charts, and so he conducted the eleven man orchestra.
but rollins is in charge of his music
he gave lot of latitude to kenny burrell.
in original form this is fantastic music.
this page is one concert in 73.

oh cool, I was misinformed. Thanks for the info.
