About this release
SOL-145580 Solar Records
The 1962 live engagement at the Village Gate marked Sonny Rollins' first recording ever with Don Cherry, as well as one of th earliest made by the saxophonist following his three-year long selfimposed musical exile. It was all recorded in a piano-less quartet format with Bob Cranshaw on bass, and Billy Higgins on drums.
While only three tunes from the gig (“Dearly Beloved” in a highly edited form) were included on the famous LP "Our Man in Paris" (RCA Victor LPM 2612), this 6-CD
collection adds all existing music taped during those live sessions, totaling more than five hours of previously unreleased material in brilliant stereo sound.
Live at the Village Gate, New York, July 27-30, 1962
