I must admit that of all sax greats, Rollins is one that I have least record of.
Somehow his tone or expressing always felt kind of 'hard' to me.
But, Frogman, thank you for your explanation, it kind of 'gives the words' to thoughts.
On the other hand, I liked the 'Bridge' , maybe because of the line up, the overall sound seems different that on the others his albums that I have listened.
Except from 'S.R. and Contemporary Leaders' I have these albums, from his 'later' phase (it was coincidently my 'earlier', in terms of jazz evolution)
'Horn Culture', from 1973.

'The cutting edge' from 1975.

Somehow, with time, I am going backwards (at least in jazz) to the more simple form of expressions, but I find them to be more substantial.
Orpheus, if I may, please do not look for every oportunity to 'pick up a fight', I realy think its not doing any favours to a thread, aldo some may find it amusing.You know, popocorns with butter and all that....
