Newk’s Time – Sonny Rollins (1959)

The 1959 Project – “Sonny Rollins’ third album for Blue Note, called Newk’s Time, was on record store shelves in early March 1959. It had been recorded in 1957, with Wynton Kelly, Doug Watkins and Philly Joe Jones at Rudy Van Gelder’s Hackensack studio. ‘The record, as I have said, is simply a record of how Rollins felt on one particular afternoon,’ wrote Joe Goldberg in the liner notes. ‘It is a measure of his achievements that such fleeting impressions can have this much significance.’ …”
