Sonny Rollins thrown the gauntlet with a legendary set of five tunes that lives up to its title. He is in peak form, playing three original tunes and a pair of standards. His rhythm section — including the incomparable Max Roach, Tommy Flanagan, and Doug Watkins — complements Sonny’s astonishing solo work.

Grade: A++.
