Introspective melodies from a jazz saxophone master
Sonny Rollins has reached a state of maturity.
1977's "Way I Feel" reflects Rollins's musical maturity. The warm tone of his tenor saxophone and the depth of his improvisations on each track are striking. It's a beautiful, introspective album that respects the jazz tradition while exploring personal emotional expression.
