If there is any doubt about the supremacy of Sonny Rollins, the clip near the start of this video should put that to rest. In other clips, Sonny expresses the philosophy that drove him to become one of the greatest jazz musicians of all time, and ends with some stark words of advice for those who strive to follow in his footsteps. Jimmy Heath tells the story of how Sonny got his nickname, and in the midst you’ll find a bit of an Easter Egg masquerading as a ’word from our sponsor’. (Prepare to groan.) This is the second of two episodes about Sonny Rollins. The previous one is linked below.
