The Rumproller is a 1966 album from trumpeter Lee Morgan (1938–1972) released on the Blue Note label. The album cover was designed by Reid Miles, and features the title and artist name in Franklin Gothic Extra Condensed, highly distorted to the point it’s reminiscent of funhouse mirror.
Cover of the stereo release, 1973
The back cover features Bodoni. Track names and Leonard Feather’s liner notes are set in Futura.
