About this album

Here’s Lee Morgan is a sharp, soulful hard bop session that shows the young trumpeter already in command of his sound. Recorded in 1960, it finds Morgan balancing blistering technique with a warm, singing tone and a keen sense of melody. The set moves between swaggering originals and a beautifully judged reading of I’m a Fool to Want You, highlighting both his confidence and sensitivity. Emerging as jazz was moving into a more modern, hard-edged phase, the album helped establish Morgan as one of the era’s most exciting Blue Note voices and a crucial figure in post-bop trumpet.
