Went down the road to Chapel Hill tonight to get my jazz on & see Sonny Rollins. Coincidentally, I think the last time I was at Memorial Hall was to see Henry Rollins. Amazing show tonight. Sonny Rollins is 79 years old and altho he does walk with a bit of that old man shuffle, once he picks up the sax and starts blowing, he's got the energy of a man half his age. Actually, that probably over-estimates the energy level of most 40 year olds. The band was cooking and Sonny sounded great. Pretty good sized crowd, which makes sense since this was one of only a handful of show he's doing in the US this year. I only recognized one of the songs he played ("My One and Only Love"). They also did a really nice Latin jazzy number. Amazing stuff.
Here's a clip of Sonny Rollins doing "My One and Only Love" from 1982.
