LEE MORGAN - trumpet WAYNE SHORTER - tenor sax HAROLD MABERN, JR. - piano BOB CRANSHAW - bass BILLY HIGGINS - drums
A sparkling 1965 session with Wayne Shorter, Harold Mabern, Bob Cranshaw, and Billy Higgins, who ignites the whole proceedings. Morgan and Shorter solo with a vengeance on some of Lee's finest compositions, including "Speedball" and the title track, which is also heard in a previously unissued alternate take. Wayne contributes "Trapped" to the album. |
