Originally released by Savoy in 1956, Introducing Lee Morgan is the hard bop album that helped establish the reputation of this extraordinary trumpeter. Alongside the then just seventeen-year-old Morgan, the album features leading jazz musicians including tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley, pianist Hank Jones, double bassist Doug Watkins and drummer Art Taylor. The album contains seven exceptionally vibrant tracks, including Mobley’s “Hank’s Shout”.

This essential reissue of Introducing Lee Morgan is part of the Craft Recordings Original Jazz Classics Series. It has been remastered from the original analog master tapes at Cohearent Audio, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI and presented in a deluxe tip-on gatefold jacket with an obi strip produced by Stoughton Printing.
