Album Notes & Community Reviews
Partnering once again with the brilliant young altoist Jackie McLean, Kenny Dorham crafts an extraordinarily elegant and fiercely swinging hard bop session. 'Matador' stands as a testament to his deeply melodic trumpet phrasing and sharp, passionate compositional skills.
