Jamey Aebersold Jazz, Volume 106: Lee Morgan [Alf:24-V106DS]

Lee Morgan is best remembered for his sassy, super-hip trumpet style, but he is also remembered for his compositional style that greatly influenced the sound of jazz in the late 50s and 60s. From the beautiful bossa nova "Ceora" to the exciting boogaloo "Sidewinder," Lee's impact on modern trumpet and contemporary jazz writing has been extraordinary. Rhythm Section: Steve Allee (p); Tyrone Wheeler (b); Jonathan Higgins (d). Titles: Ceora * The Gigolo * Koza's Waltz * Morgan the Pirate * Mr. Kenyatta * Our Man Higgins * Party Time * Sidewinder * Somethings Cute * Speedball * Stop Start * The Double Up * Totem Pole * Zambia.
