Sunny Days, Starry Nights is an album by jazz saxophonist Sonny Rollins, released on the Milestone label in 1984, featuring performances by Rollins with Clifton Anderson, Mark Soskin, Russell Blake and Tommy Campbell.
Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states: "Sunny Days, Starry Nights as usual finds the great tenor at his best on the two ballads ('I'm Old Fashioned' and Noel Coward's 'I'll See You Again') while the other four originals have been largely forgotten." Music critic Robert Christgau called the album "his most accessible and uncompromised album in more than a decade is soaked in the swinging pan-Caribbean 'calypso' that's been his special pleasure since the '50s..."
