Following the runaway success of The Sidewinder in 1964, Alfred Lion continued to record trumpeter Lee Morgan frequently in the hopes of capturing another funky boogaloo hit. While his subsequent albums may not have scaled the same commercial heights, Morgan certainly delivered the musical goods on his 1965 albums The Rumproller, The Gigolo, and Cornbread, all of which stand among the finest outings in his formidable discography. Recorded over two dates that Summer, The Gigolo featured Morgan with a dynamic quintet comprised of Wayne Shorter on tenor saxophone, Harold Mabern on piano, Bob Cranshaw on bass, and Billy Higgins on drums. A supremely confident set of swaggering hard bop, the album kicks off with the groovy opener \"Yes I Can, No You Can't,\" one of four Morgan originals featured here along with the up-tempo gems \"Trapped\" and \"Speedball,\" and stirring explorations of the 11-minute \"The Gigolo.\" The album closes with an exceptional arrangement of the ballad \"You Go To My Head\" which sways with sensual movement.","brand":"BLUE NOTE RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl","offer_id":44908014960874,"sku":"602458807851","price":32.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/4356626-3222031.jpg?v=1780137495"},{"product_id":"blixt-2","title":"BLIXT","description":"BLIXT","brand":"CUNEIFORM","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":44936871641322,"sku":"045775033525","price":17.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/1889953_3b211637-5801-4d3b-8ad3-63a459e0919f.jpg?v=1778367419"},{"product_id":"tales-of-the-facade","title":"TALES OF THE FACADE","description":"A jazz artist to watch (NPR) and \"a virtuoso in the truest sense of the word\" (JazzTimes), Morgan Guerin spent nearly a year crafting his multi-dimensional Tales Of The Facade, layering instruments and sounds track upon track.

Despite Guerin's widespread acclaim as a jazz artist, it would be reductive to call this a \"jazz album.\" \"It touches a lot of different periods and styles of music,\" Guerin explains. \"Wayne Shorter and John and Alice Coltrane are big influences, but so are people like Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Minnie Riperton, and Kendrick Lamar.

Each of us, unbeknown to the other, imagined creating the kind of recording we wanted to hear as we tucked our children in at night. Meeting in this shared land, our commingled dreams sowed the seeds of Angel Heart. Buds broke through in the farm of songs that we gathered from disparate corners of the world, with vastly differing musical languages. Delighted with the landscape, what, we wondered, would it look like in full bloom? When we laid our seedlings at the feet of Cornelia Funke, the flowering began. Her words took root around the songs to form a single story: a tale told by voices in speech and in song, suspended above a rich bed of cellos. Bringing pictures in to play, our nursery blossomed with contrast and color. Come, lay a blanket down among the stalks and petals and experience Angel Heart through music, story, sight, and touch.
