Rollins, Sonny
What's New?
Wax Love present a reissue of Sonny Rollins's What's New?, originally released in 1962. While so much attention is paid
to his titles on Blue Note, Contemporary, and Prestige, Sonny Rollins's RCA sessions from the early '60s are some of his
finest sessions and they don't get nearly the attention they deserve. In 1962 alone he released two classic titles, The
Bridge and this album, What's New? Featuring Jim Hall on guitar and Candido on percussion, among other heavy hitting
session musicians, What's New? is particularly remarkable for the Rollins' originals including the blazing, Latin
influenced "Jungoso" which features one of the most forceful solos of his career. A beautiful bossa-inspired bit of
early '60s jazz that stands tall among the catalog of one of the true pillars of the tenor saxophone.
