Recorded over three days in October 1958 at Contemporary's Studio in Los Angeles, Sonny Rollins and the Contemporary Leaders finds the legendary tenor saxophonist in remarkable company. Rollins is joined by an exceptional ensemble of the label's finest players, including pianist Hampton Hawes, guitarist Barney Kessel, bassist Leroy Vinnegar, and drummer Shelly Manne, resulting in a session that showcases the very best of late-1950s West Coast jazz.
This release from Craft Recordings is part of the prestigious Contemporary Records Acoustic Sounds Series, with AAA lacquers cut directly from the original master tapes by renowned mastering engineer Bernie Grundman and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI. The album is presented in a tip-on jacket, making this an exceptional way to experience one of Rollins' most celebrated studio recordings with the fidelity and warmth it deserves.
