A top bebop trumpeter, Mr ''McKinley Howard Dorham'' featured extensively with "all the cats" during the 50's, including work with ''Monk'', ''Parker'', ''Gillespie'' and ''Roach''. Being a friend of ''Joe Henderson'', they recorded a lot of material together. ''Dorham's'' ''Blue Note'' sessions (''Una Mas'', ''Afro-cuban'', not to mention the others) should be ranked high in the label catalog, while there also exist very interesting material published by ''Riverside''.
