Tragically short-lived trumpet prodigy, Lee Morgan, leads a quintet in this solid date that features Clifford Jordan on tenor saxophone. The songs are a collection of Morgan’s compositions and the playing is first rate throughout the record. This hard bop album is immensely enjoyable, with lots of great improvisation.

Grade: B+.
