  • Way Out West is an LP by Sonny Rollins from 1979 released on the Contemporary Records label.

    About this album

    Way Out West is one of Sonny Rollinsā€™ most celebrated albums, and a landmark for the saxophone trio format. Recorded in 1957 with bassist Ray Brown and drummer Shelly Manne, it pairs Rollinsā€™ muscular tone and instinctive humour with a stripped-back West Coast setting that made every phrase count. His playful take on ā€˜Iā€™m An Old Cowhandā€™ sits alongside standards such as ā€˜Solitudeā€™ and ā€˜There Is No Greater Loveā€™, showing how freely he could rework familiar material. Widely regarded as a hard bop classic, the album helped confirm Rollins as one of jazzā€™s most inventive improvisers.
