Blakey's first musical education came in the form of piano lessons; he was playing professionally as a seventh grader, leading his own commercial band. He switched to drums shortly thereafter, learning to play in the hard-swinging style of Chick Webb and Sid Catlett. In 1942, he played with pianist Mary Lou Williams in New York. He toured the South with Fletcher Henderson's band in 1943-1944. From there, he briefly led a Boston-based big band before joining Billy Eckstine's new group, with which...

This is a particularly obscure live set by Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers , one not even listed in most discographies. The 1968 edition of Blakey's band was a strong if underrated unit consisting of the drummer/leader, trumpeter Bill Hardman , trombonist Julian Priester , tenor saxophonist Billy Harper , pianist Ronnie Mathews and bassist Lawrence Evans. This CD is well-recorded and is highlighted by "Slide's Delight," Harper's ballad feature on "You Don't Know What Love Is," and a spirited remake...

One of Art Blakey's first true moments of genius! This transitional version of the Jazz Messengers included two parts -- Lee Morgan and Bobby Timmons -- of the holy Morgan/Shorter/Timmons trilogy, and it's also got the added bonus of Benny Golson on tenor, who was at the height of his power at this point. The record really shines in ways that few Blakey albums shone since his days with Horace Silver -- in that it's a forum for fresh new writing, most importantly Golson's landmark compositions ...

Other than that, its an enhanced audio version of some of the greatest music Blakey produced in the studio with...
