Doxy Records, formed by Sonny Rollins in 2005, was named for the famous Rollins composition which he first recorded with Miles Davis in 1954. The saxophonist’s contract with the Milestone label had just expired after a run of more than 30 years, and he decided to “make the leap” into record entrepreneurship, observing that “We in jazz have to adapt to the new technology.” His first Doxy CD, the 2006 studio recording Sonny, Please, earned a Grammy nomination and critical accolades. In fall 2008 Doxy released an extraordinary double dose of Rollins-in-concert by way of a new live CD compilation entitled Road Shows, vol. 1 and a DVD (In Vienne) of a 2006 European festival performance. The label also plans to release Decade, a new recording by longtime Rollins trombonist Clifton Anderson, in early 2009; a Rollins studio album that is currently in the works; and, of course, more volumes in the Road Shows series.
