Product Details

Recorded in December 1963 and released the following year, this session caught Morgan at the peak of his hard bop powers, surrounded by a Blue Note dream band including Joe Henderson, Barry Harris, Bob Cranshaw, and Billy Higgins. The title track's unlikely crossover success helped pull Blue Note back from financial trouble and introduced a generation of listeners to the label's deep catalog.


The Sidewinder, Lee Morgan's 24-bar blues with an infectious bass line and backbeat, instantly became one of the most popular pieces in modern jazz history - every track on this classic LP is a gem! This Rudy Van Gelder Edition reissue features 24-bit, state-of-the-art remastering and is part of Blue Note's 60th Anniversary celebration.
