Lawrence Marable
Drums Solo on
"HUH!"

About

Lawrence Marable's quarter-chorus drum solo is the fifth and final solo on this Morgan original, a brief eight-bar statement that provides a rhythmic exclamation point before the final melody statement. Over a portion of the 32-bar AABA form at 120 BPM, Marable's concise contribution caps the five-soloist sequence with percussive energy. The brevity of his solo is proportionate to the track's overall design, serving as a transitional gesture that links the improvisation section to the closing head.

Lawrence Marable was 25 to 26 years old at the time.
