This is a representative early work that simultaneously shows the explosive power of a young genius and signs of maturity.
Produced and arranged by Benny Golson, this masterpiece from the golden age of hard bop combines the energy cultivated under Art Blakey with the refinement characteristic of Blue Note.
The album exudes the vibe of 1960, the era when jazz was at its freshest and most dynamic. This is an essential album for anyone wanting to learn about Lee Morgan's early days, and a masterpiece that will rekindle your appreciation of hard bop.
