SONNY ROLLINS QUARTET, THE - Worktime (Sealed) (LP)

Worktime (1956) was the first Sonny Rollins album as a leader right after his historical two years long collaboration with the maverick Clifford Brown/Max Roach quintet. One of the greatest tenor saxophone players in the whole history of Jazz caught here in top form and featuring a hard swinging quartet with impeccable pianist Ray Bryant, a strong bassist such as George Marrow and drums colossus Max Roach. "One of Rollins's most brilliant session" Peter Niklas Wilson.
