Lee Morgan

• LIMITED CLEAR VINYL EDITION

This is Lee Morgan's second release as a leader. At the time of the recording (1956) Morgan was just 18 and he was already shining like a mature soloist and solid band leader. Another attracting point in this set is that the most of the tracks are composed by the great Benny Golson.

A beautiful hard swinging bop session featuring Hank Mobley, Horace Silver, Paul Chambers, Charlie Persip  -- plus the obscure Kenny Rodgers. Originally released on Blue Note in 1957, this album stands as a strong early piece in Lee Morgan discography.
