Description by OLDIES.com:
Without a Song was recorded at a Boston concert just four days after the attacks on 9/11, when Sonny himself was evacuated from his Lower Manhattan apartment. It is a moving demonstration of the healing power of music in general and the vast inventiveness, glorious sweep, and sheer vitality of Sonny Rollins' music in particular.
