But it's 2011, and you might also realize that Sonny Rollins must be getting up there in years. The answer is found throughout the new live recording Road Shows, Vol. 2, out Sept. 13. This disc is book-ended by a pair of Japanese performances by Rollins' working band, but the big draws here are the tracks from his 80th-birthday concert in New York City. See, Sonny Rollins needs to be experienced live to be believed. "Jazz Standards you should know" by Sherwyn Moodley.
