Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, Drum Suite, 1957 on Columbia

Art Blakey is joined here (at least on the A-side) by Cuban drummers Candido and Sabu, with Ray Bryant, Oscar Pettiford, and Charles Wright. On the B side, Jackie McLean, Spanky DeBrest, Sam Dockery, and Bill Hardman join as the Jazz Messengers.

My copy—via private sale—is a 1950s Columbia Hollywood plant pressing with the 6-eye label. The artist is credited as “The Art Blakey Percussion Ensemble” on both labels but the cover credits the B side to the Jazz Messengers.

#ArtBlakey

Le jazz, je veux dire, la musique bougera toujours, parce qu’elle ne peut pas devenir stagnante. Parce que si elle stagne, c’est comme une rivière : elle nous tuera tous. Elle doit continuer à couler, la musique coulera toujours.

Art Blakey and the Jazzmessengers [sic] - Blue Night

It’s amazing to think about the number of players who graduated from the Jazz Messengers at this point, 35 years into Blakey-led group.

Here, he’s joined by a young Terrence Blanchard (trumpet), Donald Harrison (alto), Jean Toussaint (tenor), Mulgrew Miller (piano), and Jonnie Plaxico (bass), playing some originals and standards.

Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers - Caravan

It's hard to think of this 1963 recording as one well into Blakey's career, but it was. And he's leading a bunch of great sidemen - Shorter, Hubbard, Fuller, absolutely nailing these hard bop tracks… I mean, what's not to like?

Especially this new OJC remaster by Kevin Gray - sounds great.
