The album captures the spirit of hard bop with inventive compositions and spirited improvisations that highlight Morgan?s creative genius. Lee Morgan was one of the most influential figures in modern jazz. Rising to fame as a member of Art Blakey?s Jazz Messengers while still a teenager, he went on to record numerous classic albums for Blue Note throughout the 1960s. His landmark recording "The Sidewinder" became one of jazz?s biggest crossover hits. Tragically passing away at just 33 years old, his legacy endures through timeless recordings like "Infinity." Blue Note Records stands as one of the most respected labels in jazz history since its founding in 1939. Renowned for its commitment to artistic innovation and high-fidelity production standards?especially evident in their Tone Poet series?Blue Note has been home to legends such as Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, and many more.
