Description
"Based on more than two hundred interviews with Rollins himself, family members, friends, and collaborators, as well as Rollins' extensive personal archive, 'Saxophone Colossus' is the comprehensive portrait of this legendary saxophonist and composer, civil rights activist and environmentalist. The story of Sonny Rollins--innovative, unpredictable, larger than life--is the story of jazz itself, and Sonny's own narrative is as timeless and timely as the art form he represents. 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"--,Provided by publisher.
