Biography
Lee Morgan was a prominent trumpeter on the Blue Note label roster, known for his virtuosic technique and emotionally charged playing style. Influenced by Clifford Brown, Morgan's career saw him evolve from a teen prodigy to a mature artist, blending elements of blues and R&B into his music. His 1963 album, Sidewinder, introduced a soulful, boogaloo jazz sound that gained widespread popularity. Tragically, Morgan's life was cut short in 1972 when he was shot and killed by his common-law wife.
Born in Philadelphia in 1938, Lee Morgan showed early promise as a trumpeter, performing professionally by age 15 and gaining recognition through collaborations with jazz legends like Dizzy Gillespie and Art Blakey. His breakout album, Sidewinder, propelled him to fame in 1963, showcasing his unique fusion of soul-jazz and hard bop. Despite battling heroin addiction and a brief hiatus from music, Morgan's prolific recording career left a lasting impact on the jazz world before his untimely death at the age of 33.
