The record


Title: Sonny Rollins - The Freedom Suite
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1958, Jazz, Hard Bop, Harlem, New York 7/26
Matrix #: RS 3010
Condition: VG+, sounds great, looks good, light marks (CC) | Members: Sonny R (30' - Alive)
Cultural Facts:

  1. Personal Struggle: Rollins repeatedly stepped away from fame at career peaks, disappearing from clubs to rebuild his sound in private, including famously practicing alone on the Williamsburg Bridge.
  2. Political Science: The title track was an early major jazz statement on Black freedom and civil rights, giving the album a sharper political edge than most instrumental records of its era.
  3. Studio Lore: Recorded as a stripped-down trio with Oscar Pettiford and Max Roach, the album leaves Rollins completely exposed, with no piano to hide behind and nowhere for weak ideas to go.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
