Upon reading my mind flashed to this Pioneer ad - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lkP62lMWnP4. At the time I had two Sonny vinyls. The Blue Note compilation album. Watching Rollins practicing on The Great Bridge (David McCullough, 1972) with the Penguin's narative was just too cool. Sometime sooner than later thereafter I picked up a copy of RCA's reissue which has an iconic gothic tower, and Sonny, on the cover. The back cover article tells a different story and I found out 'The Bridge was in truth the Erector Set Williamsburg Bridge.

Listening to Sonny Rollins (Prestige 1956), a compilation of two previously released 10 inchers and a cut that has Miles tinkling the ivory.
