The Gigolo catches Lee Morgan in peak form, and this Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series pressing gives a sorely underrated session the spotlight it deserves.
Recorded in 1965 but not released until 1968, the album came from a remarkably productive stretch that followed the success of The Sidewinder. Morgan brought along Wayne Shorter on tenor saxophone, Harold Mabern on piano, Bob Cranshaw on bass and Billy Higgins on drums, a quintet with chemistry to burn.
The opener, "Yes I Can, No You Can't," is a playful, loping groove in the boogaloo vein Morgan made his own, all catchy horn riff and relaxed swagger. "Speedball" is the opposite, a breakneck hard bop burner that shows off his fiery, bright-toned attack and Shorter's knotty, inventive lines.
The title track rolls along on an easy, slightly sly swing, while the ballad "You Go to My Head" reveals Morgan's tender side, his trumpet warm and unhurried over Mabern's lush chords.
It's not as famous as some of his records, which is exactly what makes it such a pleasure to discover. For collectors building a Blue Note shelf, this one plays like a well-kept secret from one of the label's brightest stars, and it sits proudly beside his better-known classics.
