so this is the version of night in tunisia lee morgan and jazz messangers recorded?

[LamontCJ]

One of many, this is Morgan's version as a leader of his own band for Blue Note.

nice

[LamontCJ]

For me, one of the best studio renditions due to Pepper Adams terrific bass clarinet and Blakey's polyrhythmic cymbol playing. More than nice, Sensational!

I hate to correct you homie, but thats a Bartione Sax not a Bass Clarinet

[LamontCJ]

By all means, that what this forum is about. You are correct. I keep thinking of Eric Dolphy's instrument when it comes to low tones on a woodwind. Thanks!

Yep, it's Philly Joe Jones on drums on this recording.

And wow, SMOKING trumpet solo!

Was Lee on anything ? His solo was inspired.

actually prefer this version to blakey's, it sounds calm down and not too manic...there is a very sexy sound attached to it. love this

[valreshel]

Splendid, always heard Dizzy's rendition, but this is smooth, Thank you for the post made my sunny day brighter n Calif today.

Listening to him is like getting punched in the face while you're orgasming. Hope I provided you with an exceptionally weird mental image. It's true.
