Infinity (Lee Morgan album)

Infinity is an album by jazz trumpeter Lee Morgan, released on the Blue Note label. It was recorded on November 16, 1965 but not released until 1981 and features performances by Morgan with a quintet featuring Jackie McLean, Larry Willis, Reggie Workman and Billy Higgins. The album was reissued on CD in 1998 as a limited edition.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "The music (four Morgan and one McLean originals), even while being tied to the hard bop tradition, is challenging and (with the exception of the closing uptempo blues 'Zip Code') quite tricky; really inspiring the talented players. An underrated gem."
