Personnel: Lee Morgan (trumpet); Hank Mobley (tenor saxophone); Hank Jones (piano); Doug Watkins (bass); Art Taylor (drums).Originally released on Savoy (MG 12091). Includes liner notes by H. Alan Stein.Young upstart Lee Morgan was earning his chops in Dizzy Gillespie's big band (the cover shows Morgan playing the famous "tilted trumpet") at the time of this recording. While his style was not yet fully formed here, Morgan dazzles with his stream of inventive ideas. On uptempo numbers, such as the opener "Hank's Shout," he alternates staccato bursts with eighth-note runs, and punctuates with subtle swing figures and mild shifts in dynamics. On slower numbers, like "P.S. , I Love You," "That's All" and "Easy Living," he displays a rich, open tone and a gentle handling of melody.Morgan is backed here by Hank Mobley's Quintet. Mobley, an accomplished and versatile stylist who deservedly shares the spotlight with Morgan in this session, also brings superior session men Art Taylor (splendid skinsman of the Max Roach school) and Hank Jones (Savoy veteran pianist) to the gig. The album is classic East Coast post-bop, textured and challenging, but with an intrinsic "cool" element, and it's full of great tunes and brilliant playing.
