Long live the King!” — in a recent review of the Lyle Murphy Four Saxes in 12 Tones album (GNP Vol. 9) ohm take] Mm Glave! ait-Wm eld <-1am tom atom (olate(-]amelitolale millon d-¥m ol colllo| ham ol g-¥1-1 i} amoll] melo | afolfofelt- Downbeat referred to him as the outstanding new alto sax voice from the West Coast. et for his hard-to-fill and hallowed place — . Here in this album is striking evidence that he deserves this high praise. 22-year-old Frank Morgan had always idolized Bird, and he plays with the same lusty, driving feeling. Showcased here in briskly varied settings, he is given an oppor- tunity to move around and show what he can do. *This album contains the last recorded performances of the late Wardell Gray.
