City Lights
SEALED limited edition Quiex SV-P 200 gram Vinyl LP. Classic Records/Blue Note ABNC 1575Q. Mono, limited edition 200 gram vinyl reissue. COVER & VINYL: MINT still sealed, never played.
Signed to the label when he was only 18 years old, this jazz prodigy cut his teeth as a Jazz Messenger with the great Art Blakey and proceeded to record a stream of impressive records as a leader for Blue Note. At the ripe old age of 19, Morgan cut the City Lights sessions in August 1957 at Rudy Van Gelder's Hackensack site. The all-star sextet tackles arrangements provided by the likes of Benny Golson and Gigi Gryce that are a perfect fit to their collective playing. Curtis Fuller on trombone, George Coleman blowing both alto and tenor, Ray Bryant at the piano, Paul Chambers on bass and Art Taylor's drumming add to Morgan's trumpet to produce a classic of '50s modern jazz. Cut on Classic's all-tube, pure mono cutting system by Bernie Grundman from the original full-track mono master tapes.
