Lee Morgan ‎– Search For The New Land (1964)

This set is one of the finest Lee Morgan records. The great trumpeter contributes five challenging compositions ("Search for the New Land," "The Joker," "Mr. Kenyatta," "Melancholee," and "Morgan the Pirate") that deserve to be revived. Morgan, tenor saxophonist Wayne Shorter, guitarist Grant Green, pianist Herbie Hancock, bassist Reggie Workman, and drummer Billy Higgins are all in particularly creative form on the fresh material, and they stretch the boundaries of hard bop (the modern mainstream jazz of the period). The result is a consistently stimulating set that rewards repeated listenings.          

Tracklist:
  1. Search for the New Land – 15:45
  2. The Joker – 5:04
  3. Mr. Kenyatta – 8:43
  4. Melancholee – 6:14
  5. Morgan the Pirate – 6:30

I always thought Lee Morgan would have been recognised as a genius if he was not surrounded by the collossi of Monk/Mingus/Davis/Coltrane. Thanks for this, I love the guy,
