Lee Morgan's 'Infinity', which was recorded in 1965 but not released until 1981, finds the great trumpeter leading a robust quintet featuring saxophonist Jackie McLean, pianist Larry Willis, bassist Reggie Workman, and drummer Billy Higgins to the far reaches of the hard bop tradition and beyond. This stereo Tone Poet Vinyl Edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI, and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket.

Charles Villiers Stanford felt a special affinity for the orchestral song, an idiom which began to establish itself as a distinct art form in its own right at the end of the nineteenth century with composers such as Mahler, Richard Strauss, Elgar and Bantock. This recording, released to mark the composer's centenary year, features a wide selection of colourful and inventive orchestrations he made of his own songs and arrangements of Irish folk melodies for the concert hall, many of which were made for the leading soloists of the days such as Harry Plunket Greene, David Bispham, Marie Brema and Olga Michailoff (the wife of Henry Wood).

Da un’età remota, attraverso i millenni e le sabbie del deserto, una presenza oscura è giunta dall’antico Egitto fino a New Heliopolis…

“This record represents the last few years of my life, the highs and the lows, it also brings together the musical influences that have shaped me as an artist – country, alternative and hip-hop. There are 36 songs on this album because we just kept exploring with fresh lyrics, music and production ideas and these are the songs that felt right to me. It was a blast to create, and I was so grateful to be back in the studio to lay this out for my fans."

Cosa è cambiato, dunque? Molto e molto poco! Le strade della città sono tornate al loro antico splendore di sangue… Il nuovo protagonista del grande show di morte e degradazione è un brutale sadico che si fa chiamare Killer Bunny, un grottesco coniglio-assassino che presto dovrà fare i conti con… Morgan Lost!
