Sound of Redemption: The Frank Morgan Story
2016 · Movie · 83 min · ★ 5.7
An absorbing documentary about a gifted alto sax player and Charlie Parker's protégée, Frank Morgan. Morgan fell hard into heroin and got to be almost as good a conman and thief as he was a musician in order to feed his habit. The habit cost him 30 years of his life in and out of prison, most of it at San Quentin, where he performed in a big band that grew famous in the Bay Area.
