Lee Morgan is best associated with his cheeky, super-hip trumpet style, however he is likewise associated with his compositional style that significantly impacted the sound of jazz in the late 50s and 60s.
From the lovely bossa nova "Ceora" to the energizing boogaloo "Sidewinder," Lee's effect on present day trumpet and contemporary jazz composing has been uncommon.
