Title Note

Personnel: Sonny Rollins (tenor saxophone, lyricon); George Duke (acoustic & electric pianos); Stanley Clarke (electric bass); Al Foster (drums); Bill Summers (congas, percussion).



Principally recorded at Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California from May 9-12, 1980.

Digitally remastered by Gary Hobish (1992, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).

More Sonny Rollins on Milestone--this time accompanied by some musicians with pretty weighty reputations of their own. Bassist Stanley Clarke contributes one of the compositions, as does pianist George Duke. Clarke and Rollins are also credited as co-writers on one of the album's highlights, the closing duet "Double Feature," a funky, slightly twisted blues that shows off Clarke's prodigious technique to great advantage.

The loose half-time opening of "Strode Rode" gives way to a cooking set of solos, underpinned by Al Foster's drums and Bill Summers' congas. The set's one standard, Ray Noble's "The Very Thought of You," gets a traditional, albeit drumless, treatment, with acoustic piano and electric upright letting Rollins thoughtfully explore the melody. Clarke's "The Dream That We Fell Out Of" and Duke's "Caress" provide various textural contrasts, with Rollins using multi-tracking to play both tenor and Lyricon on the Clarke tune.
