About
Limited Edition 6-panel Digipak with Booklet + 4 Bonus Tracks. Originally issued as What’s New? (RCA Victor LSP-2572), with the subtitle “Sonny Rollins brings to jazz a new rhythm from South America,” on the album presented here the saxophonist explored Latin rhythms during theheights of the Bossa Nova craze. This was Rollins’ second album after his three-year long self-imposed musical exile (following The Bridge), and again featured him with Jim Hall on guitar,
Bob Cranshaw on bass, and Ben Riley on drums, plus added percussionists, among them the great Candido Camero. A complete 1958 date featuring Rollins in a quartet format along with three members of the Modern Jazz Quartet
has been added as a bonus.
