Initially scheduled for release on April 24th.
After honing his skills alongside Dizzy Gillespie at the top, Lee Morgan quickly established his virtuoso trumpet on a rapidly changing jazz scene. Released in 1958 and recorded at the end of 1957, *The Cooker* would become one of the cornerstones of a career rich in classics.
Alongside geniuses such as Paul Chambers (double bass), Bobby Timmons (piano), Pepper Adams (baritone sax), and the metronomic Philly Joe Jones (drums), this opus fully embraces the world of Hard Bop. This reissue has received special attention, utilizing the mastering techniques of Blue Note's 'Tone Poets' collection. Rediscover this intense and refined album.
