Sonny Rollins and Jim Hall playing on the Bridge

Part of the legend of Sonny Rollins includes his periodic sabbaticals from the music business to practice. To avoid disturbing his neighbors, he took his saxophone under the Williamsburg Bridge, where he continued to hone his craft. The composition,  "The Bridge", emerged from that experience. He is accompanied here by the renowned guitarist, Jim Hall, who passed away this week.
