LEE MORGAN - THE SIDEWINDER (HYBRID SACD)

Lee Morgan The Sidewinder on Hybrid SACD

"The Sidewinder," Lee Morgan's 24-bar blues number with its infectious bass line and backbeat, instantly became one of the most popular pieces in modern jazz history. Morgan didn't stop there, however, as every track on this classic album is a true gem. The title track groover is complemented beautifully here by the lyrical and soulful "Totem Pole," "Gary's Notebook," "Boy, What a Night" and "Hocus-Pocus." This Hybrid SACD version also includes an alternative take of "Totem Pole." In fine support of Morgan on The Sidewinder are Joe Henderson on tenor, Barry Harris on piano, Bob Crenshaw on bass and Billy Higgins on drums.
