Our Take

In the realm of jazz, Sonny Rollins is a household name. A saxophone maestro whose playing is as smooth as a fresh jar of Marmite. Enter "Newk's Time," Rollins' classic album that has been given the vinyl treatment for all you audiophiles out there.

From the moment the needle drops on the record, you're transported to a world where saxophones reign supreme and jazz is the language of love. The opening track, "Tune Up," sets the tone with its infectious groove and Rollins' signature improvisational flair.

As the album progresses, Rollins takes you on a journey through a variety of moods and tempos. "Namely You" is a playful romp through bouncy melodies, while "My Ship" lulls you into a state of bliss with its dreamy atmosphere.

But it's on the title track, "Newk's Time," where Rollins truly shines. His saxophone wails and croons, bending notes and weaving intricate melodies that leave you spellbound. It's like listening to a master storyteller spin tales of love and loss, all through the power of his music.

So grab yourself a cuppa, put on your best tweed jacket, and settle in for a jazz experience like no other. "Newk's Time" is a classic vinyl that deserves a spot in every music lover's collection. Just don't forget to tip your hat to the genius that is Sonny Rollins. Cheers, old chap!
