Lee Morgan - Totem Pole download mp3

Consider one of the best Trumpeters to this day, why because of his passion for America only Art Form Created By People of Color who at the time had to enter the back of the Theater because of Jim Crow Laws . Even though their Names was High Lighted at the Theater and had to use Colored Drinking Fountains and Rest Rooms . But they continue to believe in themselves and A God who said enough is enough , change must come. Now we got these so called Rapper who Disrespect all The Hard work that gave their lives so they can have the. Freedom to Choose .

This is very enjoyable jazz music. Lee is a genius of the highest regard.

Sumo wrestler like tone bending here by Lee, all the way !

I was tempted to leave the like/dislike ratio at 666:13, but it seemed too unlucky

Bought the album back in the day for Sidewinder, but Totem Pole is the hidden jewel!  Props to  you Mr. Byrd for introducing me to this wonderful world of jazz - life long love.

Lee study Clifford Brown to a tee, he pick up when Clifford left us, and the Lion and the Wolf who found Blue Records had a gem when the sign the 19 year Old to a contract, he latter became one of the label biggest seller along with Jimmy Smith and Horace Sliver. Hands down my favorite Trumpeter .

Unbelievable drumming by Billy Higgins, it really propels the outstanding solos by Morgan and Henderson.
