This was my first exposure to Morgan and many of the musicians here when I bought it 13 or 14 years ago.  Not a bad place to start. 

I like Sonic Boom a lot and consider it one of the stronger Lee Morgan releases. Indeed not a bad place at all.

Duke Ellington - Hot Summer Dance (Red Baron)

This version of "Paris Blues" kills me.  Extraordinary piano from Duke.  No one else can play with such luminous nonchalance.  Nobody.

Michael White - The Land of Spirit and Light (Impulse, 1973)

I didn't include this record in my 70s jazz survey.  It didn't make much of an impact on me when I first got it a few years ago.

But a lightbulb went on recently.  Now, I wish I would've included it.  Oh well.  Maybe there'll be a spot for it in the 2nd edition.

Very fond of this. Bought it relatively recently, didn't expect much but it made a big impression.
