    Blakey's 1970s Messengers have been overlooked (Understandably,with all the legendary Morgan,Timmons,Shorter combos in the 50s and 60's, and much later,Marsalis,Blanchard,Harrison, etc)But these groups kicked major ass! Also worth mentioning is the mid 50s groups with McLean and Griffin(of which Bill Hardman was also a member)

    Blakey might be the most instantaneously recognizable drummer. When you hear him on a record or the radio, you know it is him. The sound, and the way hits the drums...one of a kind. And great.

    There's a momentary camers pan and scan of Art's young son checking Dad's drumming out. He appears to be the one on the cover of the 'Gypsy Folk Tales ' album. Very touching and poignant to see that.

    The '50s Messengers (before Horace left to form his own quintet) with Byrd and Mobley are my favorite group. But 2nd place has to go to these 1970 over-achievers--when Art was on the ropes, unable to find an American record company that would bother with his uncompromising, full-bore acoustic jazz. The compositions are still cutting edge, innovative, unlike anything before and since--all composed by Walter Davis, Jr. --And the "obscure" musicians are among the best in a Blakey group. Bill Hardman was a wily pro who loved cutting contests (he always won). He toured with Art in 3 different decades (but not during Art's recordings for Blue Note, which limited his exposure even to the limited jazz audience. One night I heard him outplay and outlast Freddie H. at an alumni event in Carnegie Hall in the '70s. Schnitter was the sleeper. Like a street citizen, dressed with no attention to style, not a tall or massive person (like his main influence Dexter), but he played up a stormed that had us in the uppermost balcony on our feet cheering him on. He's since refined his style, but it's scandalous that not one of his 4 killer albums has been reissued as a CD! Students fortunate to have him as a teacher had best pay heed. This guy is a survivor!

      We were three college guys from the US and met Bill Hardman at a sidewalk cafe in Nice the afternoon of the day he was playing at the Nice Jazz festival in 1976. He was friendly, happy, and so cool. He joked the cheap six francs steak and fries was a horse. I came to believe him. We hopped over the walls of the Roman amphitheater and got into the show that night. July 1976 and watched his show and Sara Vaughn's set. Great night
      Thanks, Bill...I will never forget you or your esteemed talent....hope to meet you again down the line...

    Jazz Messengers was an apt name. Every group of Art's that I've heard conveyed the jazz messages.

  • @caponsacchi
    @caponsacchi 4 года назад +12

    Art was a force of nature. No one comes close. And look at the proper drum technique of his hands and fingers. None of the endless, numbing, hammering on the off-beats like the Phil Collins video I just endured. Jazz is synchronized with the human pulse, not pounded into your skull at concussing levels. This is one of Art's unheralded, most exciting groups, playing some of the most challenging music of the group's tenure--thanks to the imaginative, futuristic, even visionary compositions of Walter Davis Jr. and the polytechnics of wiley veteran Bill Hardman and the young but sensational David Schnitter. I saw Art let Hardman take two unaccompanied choruses--trumpet alone--and he was in the time and the chords all the way. And his tone kept getting bigger, closer to Clifford.

    Thanks to Bu, ALL iterations of the Messengers were wonderful. Bu was the Ph.D of one of America's most important universities. Betty Carter was another. Together, they mentored and gave work to hundreds of important artists. Jazz would be much poorer without them.
    Joe Segal loved Bu, and booked his band at his Jazz Showcase every chance he got, so I got to hear him and his bands a lot. The first recording I sold to NPR for Jazz Alive was of Blakey's band in 76-77 at the Showcase. Valeri Ponomarev, Bobby Watson, David Schnitter, and Albert Dailey were on that band.

    I think Dave is still with us--thankfully. The smoke and fire aren't there anymore--how could it be with anyone but Blakey? And it's a treat to seem him at Small's in the Village, even though he seems a bit lost for a direction or focus in what is a more introspective, laid-back period.. Mickey Tucker may be the best pianist you've never heard of.

    Art’s mid-late 70s Messengers highly underrated but incredibly talented, no slouches. Love In Walked Sonny w/Sonny Stitt, Backgammon, Gypsy Folk Tales, In This Korner, In My Prime, and Reflections in Blue, some of the best from the Jazz Messengers library.

I am always amazed how he re-invented his line-ups with great talents. This session is incredible. So how come folks that Jazz has somehow lost its drive, inspiration and above all its message?

    I was 16 and alot of retired pros were in Charlotte where I grew up. This so captures the real sound of real high level advanced players of that time yes harmonic motion but often unconventional not up4 down5 necessarily but inside and swinging. A bit hard edged and all business. Art is so up under and buoyant to that piano solo... man. The tennor solo on Golson's harmonically challanging "Along Came Betty" is elegant swinging lyrical what more do you want,?

      Je me souviens d'un concert du groupe des Jazz Messengers avec Art Blakey, pour un billet de 5 francs à l'époque, dans la salle du Centre Pablo Neruda à Nîmes dans ces années là, 76. Il devait y avoir 200 personnes environs dans la salle, tous debout, on était tous enthousiastes. L'ambiance était surchauffée. J'avais dans les 24 ans. Pour nous, à Nîmes, c'était normal de voir de tels musiciens dont les vinyles faisaient notre culture musicale de base. Faut dire qu'à l'époque tous ces grands jazzmans écumaient l'Europe tellement ils y trouvaient bon accueil et très bon public, contrairement à leur pays d'origine. Dans les années 70 nous avions un Festival de Jazz magnifique, presque tous les grands y sont passés. Quelle époque où le jazz était vraiment populaire, et où toute sortes de classes sociales confondues accédaient à ces concerts qu'on ne reverra plus désormais qu'en ce qu'il en reste en vidéos. Maintenant seule une certaine élite culturelle écoute du jazz, comme le classique. Changement de temps...

    When I was about six(69 now)my uncle,while we were listening to blakey,pointed out the unique technique blakey was doing in this piece.If you observe the sockcymbals,you'll see a consistent tempo.All the while he's playing all types of beats and syncopated rythyms on different parts of the drums and cymbals and never losing timing on the sockcymbals.that was his genius.It took other top drummers a very long long time to do this technique and most still can't do it.blakey started on the piano.

      Perhaps I didn't explain my comment correctly and was misunderstood.The technique I'm speaking of, blakey was the first and only one doing it.When others heard it,they all tried it.max roach attempted it and could hold tempo part way through the solo.But blakey for the longest was the only one who could do it.when the video first played (which was partial),that's when you hear the technique I'm referring to.Watch the sockcymbals as he's playing the solo.
