Listening Room – “Kelly Great”
This 1959 record teams Wynton Kelly with fellow Vee-Jay Records artsits Wayne Shorter and Lee Morgan for a satisfying hard-bop session. This album was pretty rare before it was re-released on CD and hopefully the original tracks (one each by Morgan (What I Know) and Kelly (Wrinkles), two by Shorter) might now get of the attention they deserve.
Released 1960 : Vee-Jay Records : Catalog # LPS-1016
Players:
Wynton Kelly - Piano
Wayne Shorter - Tenor Sax
Lee Morgan - Trumpet
Paul Chambers - Bass
Philly Joe Jones - Drums
