The record

Cut just before Rollins struck out on his own classic run, this quintet session catches the tenorman still embedded in Roach's hard-driving unit, with Kenny Dorham's brass sparring against Ray Bryant's crisp comping. A tight, blowing-session snapshot of the era's premier working band at full tilt.
