Sonny Rollins Plus 4
''Sonny Rollins Plus 4'' (also released as ''3 Giants!'') is a jazz album by Sonny Rollins, released in 1956 on Prestige Records. On this album Rollins plays with the Clifford Brown/Max Roach Quintet, of which he was a member at the time. The album was the last full recording including pianist Richie Powell and trumpeter Clifford Brown, as both died in a car accident three months later.〔John Barron, "Plus Four," All About Jazz, March 2, 2007 http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/article.php?id=24877〕 The material from this album was later also re-released as ''3 Giants''〔(Sonny Rollins, Clifford Brown and Max Roach - ''3 Giants!'', Prestige PR 7291, released presumably 1966 ) and as (''Three Giants!'', Prestige Historical Series PR 7821, released 1972 ) retrieved September 3, 2012〕 and is part of the seven CD set with Rollins' ''Complete Prestige Recordings''.〔(''Sonny Rollins - The Complete Prestige Recordings'', Prestige 7PCD-4407-2, released 1992 ) retrieved September 3, 2012〕
==History==
Rollins had written his two original compositions ("Pent-Up House" and "Valse Hot") while a sideman in the Max Roach/Clifford Brown Quintet. It was more common in the 50s for a sideman recording his own work to record with either the rhythm section or leader; thus it was unusual when Rollins recorded with the same musicians that he played with in the Quintet. Rollins had just joined the Quintet five months beforehand, replacing Harold Land, who had left New York to care for his sick wife in California.
Rollins had been working as a janitor in Chicago at the time, spending most of his time practicing and rethinking his life (a smaller sabbatical compared to the later ones he would take). The Quintet was in Chicago as well in November 1955, and were playing at the Bee Hive Club in Hyde Park. After sitting in with the Brown/Roach Quintet at the Bee Hive, Rollins was added as the tenor saxophonist. Upon returning to New York, Rollins recorded ''Plus 4'' and used the Quintet as it was convenient. This was at the risk of sounding too much like the Quintet, but Rollins had an idea for the album, as well as several original compositions, so the album had a sound distinct from the Quintet's.〔Neil Tesser, liner notes from ''Sonny Rollins Plus 4''- SACD 2002 Reissue http://www.mymusicbase.ru/PPS5/sd_5153.htm〕
Sonny had heard Rosemary Clooney sing "Count Your Blessings" in ''White Christmas'', and decided to record a version, due to his fondness for Irving Berlin standards. "Kiss and Run" is played as a duet between Brown and Rollins. "I Feel a Song Coming On" is a fast cover of a Dorothy Fields standard. "Valse Hot" is a jazz waltz which remains one of Rollins' most well-known pieces, just like his other composition "Pent-Up House".
