Lee Morgan had two albums in the can when "The Sidewinder" became the surprise hit of 1964, making the Top 100 pop album charts. Blue Note brought Lee back into the studio for a follow-up album with Joe Henderson and Billy Higgins reprising their roles. The kick-off funk tune "The Rumproller" was written by Andrew Hill and proved a worthy successor to "The Sidewinder". But Lee's beautiful "Desert Moonlight", in time, became regarded as this album's classic performance. The ballad "The Lady" offers a rare appearance by Lee with muted trumpet. Added to the original album is Wayne Shorter's "Venus Di Mildew", recorded by the same quintet two days earlier.
