Although the MetroJazz label did not even exist for a whole year, Leonard Feather managed to produce fifteen extraordinary albums in this short period of time. One of these was Sonny Rollins' "Big Brass", which was re-released by Verve Records in 1958 under the new title "Brass / Trio". In fact, the title "Brass / Trio / Solo" would have been even more appropriate. Because the tenor saxophonist showed himself from three sides on the album: First, he can be heard in four pieces with an eight-piece brass ensemble arranged and conducted by Ernie Wilkins plus a four-piece rhythm section, then in three pieces with his own piano-less trio and finally, as the crowning finale, as an unaccompanied soloist.
