The earlier Rollins version of Moritat is superb and from what many people consider his best period and best album. I love it.
The live video clip is from quite a different period when his sound had coarsened and he was playing with a good band but hardly the master players from the Saxophone Colossus recording. I still enjoyed this version, but for me it is far from a masterpiece.

PS Sonny Rollins is my all time favourite musician, improviser, saxophonist and a warm human being. I saw him many times in London in the 80s and 90s when his concerts were big occasions, with amazing musicianship, but quite often the standard was variable and the backing band were just that.
