Description
Lee Morgansmagnum opusThe Sidewinderrecorded in 1963 and release in 1964was both a comeback and a coronation. The prodigious trumpeter had debuted on Blue Note in 1956 at the age of 18, but personal problems in the early-60s forced him off the scene temporarily. His rebound recording turned out to beThe Sidewinder, an assured and energetic set of 5 indelible Morgan originals featuring tenor saxophonistJoe Henderson,pianistBarry Harris, bassistBob Cranshaw, and drummerBilly Higgins.The album became his biggest commercial success fueled by the irrepressible title track.
This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is all-analog, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes, and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
