This time, 30 rare albums that have not been reissued in Japan in recent years have been carefully selected and reissued in SHM-CD format. The Jazz Messengers, featuring Lee Morgan and Wayne Shorter, led the funky golden age, and this is a heated live performance held at Birdland, a prestigious jazz club in New York. The album begins with an introduction by the legendary MC Pee Wee Market and continues with the groovy number "The Opener." It also includes the classic "Round About Midnight."
