Rollins plays the melody on alternating songs \"I Remember You\" and \"They Can’t Take That Away from Me,\" Kenny Dorham has at it for \"My Melancholy Baby\" and \"Just Friends,\" with Wade Legge getting his two cents in on trio only versions of \"Old Folks\" and \"My Little Suede Shoes.\" Finally the whole band joins in on the ten-minute medley finale \"Star Eyes.\" Two independent selections accompany the medley: Rollins does the ballad \"I’ve Grown Accustomed to Your (Her) Face,\" from the musical \"My Fair Lady\" and the horns finally play together for the nearly 12-minute cool waltz \"Kids Know.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOriginally released in 1956\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSonny Rollins, tenor saxophone\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWade Legge, piano\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGeorge Morrow, bass\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMax Roach, drums\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKenny Dorham, trumpet \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acoustic Sounds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59548594896977,"sku":"753088709517","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1034\/5778\/3889\/files\/APRJ_7095__77090__09172014104428-6602.jpg?v=1779354321","url":"https:\/\/c09u90-kd.myshopify.com\/products\/sonny-rollins-rollins-plays-for-bird-analog-productions-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
