Our Man in Jazz is an album by jazz saxophonist Sonny Rollins, released by RCA Victor featuring July 1962 performances by Rollins with Don Cherry, Bob Cranshaw, and Billy Higgins.[5] These performances have been described as contrasting from Rollins' previous style by moving to "very long free-form fancies, swaggering and impetuous".[6]
