Sonny Rollins' 1974 appearance at the Montreux Jazz Festival was warmly received. Joined by his usual band of the period (pianist Stanley Cowell, guitarist Masuo, electric bassist Bob Cranshaw, drummer David Lee, and percussionist Mtume), Rollins manages to turn such unlikely material as "To a Wild Rose" and "A House Is Not a Home" into jazz. The world's only jazz bagpipe player (Rufus Harley) makes his presence felt on "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot."
This 1974 album was recorded "live" at the Montreux Jazz Festival. This band is a little more electronic than sometimes: Stanley Cowell (p), Masuo (g), Bob Cranshaw (eb), Dave Lee and Mtume (percussion) and Rufus Harley (bagpipes) on the final lengthy "swing Low Sweet Chariot". Despite the last track, which is pretty cacophonous, this is a worthwhile purchase because it contains Rollin's extensive solo "To A Wold Rose" (8.39) which is a true masterpiece of jazz improvisation. Written originally for "classical piano" Rollin's treats this beautiful tune with total respect as he calculatingly diseminates it, note for note, before reassembling it in several guises before its full restoration. A master class in jazz improvisation. For this track alone it is worth buting this album.
However the other tracks (other than SLSC) have merit, especially the title track and "A House Is Not A Home".
Some will enjoy "Sweet Chariot" too!
