One of the very greatest.
Today, September 7, 2013, is his 83rd birthday! Here's to many more.

Happy 83rd Birthday, Sonny!
This is from a 1965 Copenhagen concert, originally recorded for television broadcast, Tom. Thank the jazz Gods for that archival footage, now part of the Jazz Icons series.
Thanks for that video link-up, Tom. Wonderful stuff.

just a bit late getting here...
Sonny Rollins is certainly one for whom the term "The Great" is totally appropriate. I wish him many more Happy Birthdays.
