Talk:Lee Morgan

message: There is so much wrong with the Death section here. I'm not really familiar with the editing procedure and would appreciate someone picking up the lead here. It's really a great story. A good source is the Bill Hart interview (link to the MP3 at the middle of the page)...
http://billyhartmusic.com/interview_part_3.htm
To use the word "murder" is a bit much. It might have even been an accidental shooting, and I believe that's the way it was treated by the police. I don't think that anyone was ever charged, although the purported shooter (not Morgan's current but his estranged girlfriend) did spend some time in a mental institution after the event. What is really the revisionist part of this little section is the "killing him instantly" part. Someone just made that up! Perhaps there's a bit of white guilt involved. If Morgan had been shot in a better part of town, he wouldn't have bled out! He died a slow and agonizing death because of the racism of the day.
You're free to write me if you wish...

replies: text: That's really silly.  Slugs was a jazz hotspot - Morgan was happy to be playing there.  He died from blood loss, and that would have happened wherever he was.  Racism?  That's pathetic.  He was a heroin addict, he turned his life into a mess, and he was not "smart" with women, and one of them got angry and shot him (a black woman.) Morgan was a great talent, but like many artists, he made his personal life a disaster, and there is no one to blame for this but himself. HammerFilmFan (talk) 00:06, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:LeeMorgan.jpg

message: Akira Kurosawa's Stray Dog (1949) has a scene where a character is looking in a store window which has a poster of Morgan, and the Criterion DVD's commentary talks briefly about Morgan and Jazz in Japan- including the information that Morgan married a Japanese woman.

replies: text: Morgan would have been 11 years old at the time. He would not begin his recording career until 8 years later, and he definitely was not married at that age, so this information will not be included in the article. You've got the wrong movie or the wrong Morgan. 2601:58B:C401:7B60:4BC:5EC3:6EEE:72FA (talk) 15:12, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
