The Cutting Edge - Sonny Rollins, McCoy Tyner, Ron Carter, Al Foster



Incredible playing.   It's always amazing to hear how jazz musicians can turn out genius level performances, some of the greatest music ever played here or elsewhere,  that are obscure in the general American culture as pop trash infests the collective memory.   Something is seriously wrong with that.  I think it's a matter of marketing decisions.  I think more people would go for the great stuff if it were not ignored.  Though race could certainly enter into it.

Sonny Rollins - Saxophone
McCoy Tyner - Piano
Ron Carter - Bass
Al Foster - Drums
