** Special Time-Limited Offer ** On The Cooker, Lee Morgan fronts a quintet with Pepper Adams on baritone saxophone, Bobby Timmons at the piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and “Philly” Joe Jones on drums, and lives up to the album’s title. Recorded when he was still in his early twenties, the session showcases a trumpet voice brimming with swagger and control. The band digs into blues‑based vehicles and brisk swingers with equal commitment, Adams’ baritone adding a gruff counterweight to Morgan’s brightness. Timmons, Chambers, and Jones stoke the fire, keeping tempos buoyant, accents sharp, and the swing relentless. This is hard bop at a rolling boil.
