    About this album

    Tenor Madness is a landmark 1956 Sonny Rollins album and one of the defining statements of hard bop. Recorded for Prestige, it pairs Rollins with an exceptional quartet and, on the title track, John Coltrane in a celebrated tenor-sax showdown that has become part of jazz lore. Across its concise set, Rollins balances deep swing, blues feeling and melodic invention, showing the relaxed authority that made him one of the era’s most distinctive improvisers. Its mix of intensity and wit helped cement Rollins’ reputation and ensured the album a lasting place in modern jazz history.
