Product Information

Known as the "Saxophone Colossus," Sonny Rollins is one of the greatest jazz improvisers of all time, winning Grammys, the Austrian Cross of Honor, Sweden's Polar Music Prize, and a National Medal of Arts. A bridge from bebop to the avant-garde, he is a lasting link to the golden age of jazz, pictured in the iconic "Great Day in Harlem" portrait His seven-decade career has been well documented, but the backstage life of the man once called "the only jazz recluse" has gone largely untold-until now. Based on more than 200 interviews with Rollins himself, family members, friends, and collaborators, as well as Rollins's extensive personal archive, Saxophone Colossus is the comprehensive portrait of this legendary saxophonist and composer, civil rights activist, and environmentalist. A child of the Harlem Renaissance, Rollins's precocious talent landed him on the bandstand and in the recording studio with Bud Powell, Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, and John Coltrane, or playing opposite Billie Holiday. In a staggering three-year span from 1956 to 1958, he recorded the classic albums Saxophone Colossus, Tenor Madness, Way Out West, A Night at the Village Vanguard, and Freedom Suite. Yet his meteoric rise to fame was not without its challenges. He served two sentences on Rikers Island and won his battle with heroin addiction, In 1959, Rollins took a two-year sabbatical from recording and performing, practicing up to sixteen hours a day on the Williamsburg Bridge. In 1968, he left again to study at an ashram in India. He returned to performing from 1971 until his retirement in 2012. Part jazz oral history told in the musicians' own words, part chronicle of one man's quest for social justice and spiritual enlightenment, this is the definitive biography of one of the most enduring and influential artists in jazz and American history.

Reviews
"A wonderful detailed and insightful journey through the life of an incredible artist and thinker. It is unlikely anyone will pen anything about Rollins, and maybe any other jazz musician, that will be its equal." -- NYS Music, "A long book allows for a luxurious detail.... Saxophone Colossus does what the best biographies do: Gives you enough information to pursue your own lines of inquiry." -- Point of Departure, "Rollins has never deviated from the obsessive nature of his calling. He's found a like-minded biographer, who paints pictures with words as adeptly as Rollins did with his saxophone. Subject and author deserve each other." -- iPaper (UK), "Aidan Levy has provided the jazz world and beyond an important documentation of one of the greatest musicians of all time. Sonny Rollins spoke his own language through the saxophone--just check out his solo on 'Alfie'! And Saxophone Colossus provides for us in words a portal to deeper understanding of this legendary jazz giant!"-- Terri Lyne Carrington, Grammy-winning drummer, producer, and composer
