Our Take

Sonny Rollins is back with a reissue that's as cheeky as it is bold. "Saxophone Colossus" on limited edition blue vinyl is a treat for the eyes and ears. The colours pop like a burst of confetti at a jazz festival, giving a fresh twist to a classic album.

Rollins' saxophone prowess is on full display here, with each note hitting like a punch from a heavyweight champ. The unique sound of the blue vinyl adds an extra layer of richness to the experience, making it feel like you're sitting front row at a smoky jazz club in 1956.

From the soothing melodies of "St. Thomas" to the frenetic energy of "Blue 7," Rollins takes listeners on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. His improvisational skills are unmatched, with each solo feeling like a conversation between old friends.

The supporting cast of Tommy Flanagan on piano, Doug Watkins on bass, and Max Roach on drums bring their A-game, creating a tight-knit groove that is irresistible. The chemistry between the musicians is palpable, making each track a joy to listen to.

Overall, "Saxophone Colossus" on blue vinyl is a must-have for any jazz fan. It's a bold statement piece that demands attention, just like Rollins himself. So grab a glass of whiskey, dim the lights, and let the smooth sound of Sonny Rollins wash over you. Cheers to a true colossus of the saxophone.
