What we have here is a one-nighter by the Steve Lacy Quartet at Paris’ Sunset Club. ... The four members of the Quartet get a chance to stretch out and you can feel the club’s energy clearly in the recording – it’s a good night at the Sunset. ... In this era of homogenization – of jazz players who are filled with technique but have gotten their sound from textbooks – there is not enough attention that can be focused on an uncompromising jazz individual like Steve Lacy. Morning Joy is yet another distinguished addition to a substantial and important body of work. Lee Jeske
