AMG Review of Alfie
Scott Yanow
All Music GuideSonny Rollins compositions for the film Alfie (which benefited greatly from Oliver Nelson's arrangements) are heard on this CD as played by Rollins and a ten-piece band. The music easily stands by itself without the movie and Rollins is in fine form on these generally memorable themes, particularly "On Impulse" and "Alfie's Theme." This superlative effort was most recently reissued on an Impulse CD in 1997.
