About this album

Another example of the Genius of Lee Morgan. This piece is a classic, and has the earmarks of the evolution of jazz towards fusion of Latin and Jazz. Lee Morgan had he lived would undoubtedly been on the same track that Miles Davis ventured into. But unfortunately, his life was cut short by a tragic incident, while playing on stage.

Lee Morgan - trumpet
Joe Henderson - tenor saxophone
Billy Higgins - drums
Barry Harris - piano
Bob Cranshaw - bass
