LEE MORGAN * Search for the New Land *

Bereits zwei Monate nach der Aufnahme seines Albums “The Sidewinder” (das sich bald als überraschender Hit erweisen sollte) ging Trompeter Lee Morgan erneut ins Studio von Rudy Van Gelder, um dort im Februar 1964 mit einem Allstar-Sextett “Search For The New Land” einzuspielen. Als das Album, das fünf neue Originale von Morgan vorstellte, 1966 erschien, konnte es sich ebenfalls sowohl in den damaligen “Black Album”- (heute: Top R&B/Hip-Hop) als auch den “Pop Album”-Charts von Billboard platzieren.

english description:

Two months after recording what would become his hit record The Sidewinder, trumpeter Lee Morgan returned to Van Gelder Studio in February 1964 to create his masterful album Search for the New Land. For the session Morgan assembled a sextet consisting of several young stars of the Blue Note roster including Herbie Hancock on piano, Grant Green on guitar, and Wayne Shorter on tenor saxophone, along with the dynamic rhythm team of bassist Reggie Workman and drummer Billy Higgins. The album opens with the expansive 16-minute title track, a musical odyssey that alternates a shimmering rubato theme with a loping exploration by each soloist. Four more indelible Morgan originals follow including jaunty numbers such as “The Joker” and “Morgan the Pirate,” as well as the plaintive ballad “Melancholee.”

This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is stereo, all-analog, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes, and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
