Ease It is a jazz album credited to Rocky Boyd's Quintet, featuring Kenny Dorham on trumpet. It is the only album known to exist by this obscure saxophonist, and was released by the equally obscure Jazztime Records, here at its first release (JTL 001). It was also released by Muse Records as Ease It! (MR 5053). In 1989, Black Lion released an ultimate edition on CD titled West 42nd Street, credited to Kenny Dorham, which comprised all the takes from the session.
