Review
by Scott Yanow
This set (reissued on CD in 1997) was one of trumpeter Lee Morgan's lesser-known Blue Note recordings but it is quite rewarding. The notable sextet (which also includes altoist Jackie McLean, Hank Mobley on tenor, pianist Cedar Walton, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Billy Higgins) performs originals by Morgan, Walton and Duke Pearson, including particularly catchy versions of the funky "Hey Chico" and Pearson's memorable "Sweet Honey Bee" (which should have become a hit). The three horns, all of whom sound quite individual, each have their exciting moments, and the results are quintessential mid-'60s hard bop.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Este conjunto (reeditado en CD en 1997) fue una de las grabaciones menos conocidas del trompetista Lee Morgan en Blue Note, pero es bastante gratificante. El notable sexteto (que también incluye al contralto Jackie McLean, Hank Mobley al tenor, el pianista Cedar Walton, el bajista Paul Chambers y el batería Billy Higgins) interpreta originales de Morgan, Walton y Duke Pearson, incluyendo versiones particularmente pegadizas del funky "Hey Chico" y la memorable "Sweet Honey Bee" de Pearson (que debería haberse convertido en un éxito). Las tres trompas, que suenan muy individualmente, tienen cada una sus momentos emocionantes, y el resultado es la quintaesencia del hard bop de mediados de los 60.
