 There's a muted trumpet solo, I think it's on "You're Not the Kind," that's probably my favorite Lee Morgan solo ever, just one continuous gorgeous swinging line. And the team of Philly Joe and Percy! Is this their only record together? And Golson and Bryant!

Yes, in a recent Golson compilation I listened to, it stood out as a very good session.

Mulgrew Miller The Countdown

Excellent album.  Thanks to @HutchFan for playing this CD earlier on. I was unaware of this album's existence. Discovering such a fine Joe Henderson sideman date with Tony Williams on the drums is like Christmas in July. It was a bit expensive, but worth it.
