About this album
The Bridge is one of Sonny Rollins’ most celebrated albums, and a key statement in his post-hiatus career. Recorded in 1961 and released in 1962, it captured Rollins returning to record after stepping away to practise on the Williamsburg Bridge, with a pared-back quartet that left plenty of space for his inventive phrasing. The album’s mix of standards and originals, including John S. and the title track, showed Rollins refining hard bop into something more open, searching and personal. Its restrained confidence helped secure its place as a defining work in his catalogue.
