Rahsaan Roland Kirk 1936-1977 was a blind American jazz saxophonist, perhaps best known for his ability to play more than one saxophone at once. Kirk was born Ronald Kirk on 7th August 1936, in Columbus, Ohio, but felt compelled by a dream to transpose two letters in his first name to make Roland. After another dream in about 1970 he added Rahsaan to his name. A song by Rahsaan Roland kirk from his second album called 'introducing Roland Kirk' released in Roland Kirk, 1960. Roland Kirk. Soul Station, 05:26. Our Waltz, 04:51. Roland Kirk was arguably the most exciting soloist the jazz world has ever seen. Blind since childhood, Kirk developed a unique sensitivity to sound that he parlayed into all sorts of interesting ideas, most notably the ability to play two or three instruments simultaneously. For a while the vaudeville nature of this trick overshadowed his prodigious talents as a soloist. He was capable of great tenderness as well as bursts of aggressive lines and knew how to construct a solo better than many. Kirk's Work from 1961 is good, but not much different than any other organ jazz record at the time: plenty of soul, blues, and the occasional ballad, all buoyed by the burly organ of Jack McDuff.
