Lament (Frank Morgan album)

Lament is an album by saxophonist Frank Morgan which was recorded in 1986 and released on the Contemporary label.

[1][2][3] The review by Allmusic's Scott Yanow said: "Frank Morgan's comeback (he had gone 30 years between recordings) was a major story in the mid-1980s ...

The music is high-quality bop, with Morgan shedding much of his Charlie Parker influence to display his own distinctive sound".

[4] In The New York Times, Robert Palmer wrote: "Mr. Morgan's new album Lament lets us know how much we've been missing.

Overall, this is a more impressive album than last year's very fine Easy Living.
