Release Notes:
Although recorded in 1965, this excellent Lee
Morgan Quintet session (which features the
trumpeter with altoist Jackie McLean, pianist Larry
Willis, bassist Reggie Workman and drummer Billy
Higgins) was not released until 1980 and quickly
went out of print until this 1998 CD reissue. It
has deserved much better fate. The music (four
Morgan and one McLean originals), even while being
tied to the hard bop tradition, is challenging and
(with the exception of the closing uptempo blues
"Zip Code") quite tricky; really inspiring the
talented players. An underrated gem.
