A stellar mid-60s session from Lee Morgan, featuring an incredible lineup of Blue Note regulars. The album is best known for the beautiful and lyrical ballad 'Ceora,' a perfectly crafted piece with a gentle bossa nova inflection that has become a timeless jazz standard. It stands as a testament to the enduring power of melody and elegant form within the post-bop tradition.
