Wayne Shorter's first Blue Note album remains a masterpiece. Lee Morgan, McCoy Tyner, Reggie Workman and Elvin Jones interpret his unique compositions beautifully and they generously add their own creative depth to his creations.

* bonus track, not part of the original LP

Recorded on April 29, 1964 at the Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey

LEE MORGAN, trumpet; WAYNE SHORTER, tenor sax; McCOY TYNER, piano; REGGIE WORKMAN, bass; ELVIN JONES, drums

Organist Jimmy Smith, tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine, and guitarist Kenny Burrell always make for a potent team, and with drummer Donald Bailey completing the group, the quartet digs soulfully into such numbers as the groovin' "Midnight Special," "Jumpin' the Blues," and "One O'Clock Jump." A highly recommended album.

Players Include:
Jimmy Smith - Organ, Organ (Hammond)
Stanley Turrentine - Sax (Tenor)
Donald Bailey - Drums
Kenny Burrell - Guitar
