Thank you for doing what the uploader should have done.
Art,, starts looking a little nervous! But then he smiles because the butterfly's are gone and he,s been here a thousand times kicks in!
I recall this Messengers, gig. I was living in London at the time, went three times in one week to listen Art and his musicians.
GREAT! What are the dates please & do you know all the players with Mr. Blakey? Thanks...
Oh man, so much talent on a small stage. They look so nonchalant but oh boy they play so tight. Back in the 80’s I was backpacking in Australia and played this album till it wore out. Never will I tire of this performance!
A true moment in jazz history Blakley in all his glory blazing and heartfelt now crystallized in our hearts forevermore RIP AB☆
Always loved how Art Blakey continually changed his lineup. A real musical college. This lineup was shortly after the Wynton Marsalis and Branford Marsalis lineup.
you might say art's messengers were the greatest talent training program ever. almost everyone he hired and showcased became a star and so he continually discovered new geniuses. maybe not the world's greatest drummer in the sense of flash but n o one can ever care for the consistent superiority of his ever-changing line-ups.
I just finished a pretty good book called Hard Bop Academy which is about his cast of sidemen. Pretty amazing group.
@@spricegtr !!!!
As a drummer Art and the other drummers from us in that time period were so groundbreaking.
Good................
God..................
Gold.
His drumming style is so crisp. Love it!!
An abundance of talent. Backpacked for a year in buses playing this album over and over. Never tire, beautiful jazz and just admire AB's enthusiasm and love for jazz
The Inmortal Jazz Messengers!!!!
YES! (IMMORTal!!).
I love you AB . Rest in rhythm.
Rest in Power my Brother you will always be missed but never forgotten Kudos until we meet again
NEW ORLEANS IN THE BUILDING!!!
They are fantastic!
Giants of jazz.Master piece. WOW
Wonderful! Thank you for posting this performance.
wonderful! 😁
Hi, my son has just sent this as an Easter present, we were there, the club was full so they set up a table and chairs on the stage, about 4 ft from Art's drums, so we had the best view in the house, it was a great night
WOW!!!! What a boon!!
do you know THE NAMES OF THE MUSICIANS BESIDES MR. BLAKEY?
man they were playing their ASSES OF!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cymande Hayes Asses of what mean?
jazz is something else..
Saw this same line up in San Francisco. Packed to the rafters. I remember Terrance Blanchard’s Solo feature being a complete moment for everyone in the club. Recordings from those gigs became the Live at Kimball’s album.
Thanks for this amazing moment
This is truly enjoyable....Thank You for whomever uploaded this on UTube.
Yes. Thanks! And especially a Ronnie Scott's gig is always welcome!
Great Jazz...only by Masters !...
This is a great gig. I never even knew it was filmed! It's fairly easily available on CD, which I have listened to countless times over two decades.
I was in audience that night appx 1985
@@alankirkby465 oh wow. This is only one set so there's one missing I guess?
@@monsterjazzlicks Hello to you, yes I recall this gig, what i remember of it, Messengers were doing two weeks gig at
Ronnie Scott club, I went three times in one week. Recall video being recorded on one of those nights.
First saw Art Blakey Jazz Messengers, on their very first tour of U.K. at The Free Trade Hall, Manchester, (1961)
In the quintet was : Lee Morgan and Bobby Timmons.
Thelonious Monk, was on the other half of this concert.
Love all people who like this genre of music.
@@alankirkby465 I wonder if Blakey played the exact same set at Ronnie's each night?
@@monsterjazzlicks That's a good question, I can't recall, I don't think so ( but don't quote me )
One more thing I do remember Art asking audience go out and buy a Jazz record + it appeared
that Terrance Blanchard, was about leave Messengers after this gig. Art told the audience this
and somehow I had impression Art was upset and angry concerning this ( just my personal impression )
Thanks. It was an unexpected bit of cool to see the young Terence Blanchard.
Art Blakey and the Jazz messages wow! i really like this set .
Terence Blanchard on trumpet... now a very busy film composer
can you list all the musicians in addition to ART BLAKEY & TERENCE BLANCHARD? THANKS~
Art kicked those Youngblood's butts!
Jean Toussaint on Tenor!
What a treat! Can't take my eyes off of AB when he's in the camera's view. Dear, Jazz at Ronnie Scott's , you need to put the personnel and setlist in your annotations. Thanks for the upload, though. Love the show and interview segments.
Luther ingram
Personnel and set list, thank you for saying this for me.
This is where people come to learn, YES! PLEASE & THE DATE THIS WAS RECORDED!!! VERY important~
The small groups of the jazz world was the offering of the man, the personality, the individual- denied by classical orchestrations except in very restricted areas and compositions. The big bands produced the deep and subtle chords which gave such power and ambiance to a score. Kenton the obvious innovator, Shorty Rogers taking the mix of soloists and big band chords that one stage further. Soloists are the very essence of jazz, as Tubby Hayes showed the Brits - another genius who gave jazz the full monty. John Prescott mentioned the "class" angle to the point of tedium - as he always did, the peasant; but jazz transcends thew background of the individual. It's basically all about the depth in a man or woman, even the intelligence level is important in the art of improvising. It's a mixture of many qualities.. To me personally, it offers beauty, peace, dynamism and the ultimate in self-expression.
So not a Stan Kenton fan then.
You must be quite the comedian. Give me the nudge when it's time to grin.
peace. appreciate the insight. question: how does ellington fit into your scheme?
Music's great. At 25:32 l haven't seen the bassist or the pianist. 'Hope to see them before the end!
Wow, that ride cymbal was totally inaudible on the video cassette back in the days. Bought and returned it twice because of it.
jazz drummers make rock drummers look silly. no disrespect. they're just so smooth and on another level.
Uhh jazz drummers were first! Rock came later! It,s like rock, by the late 70,s rock got too hard and punk came out.
yes I agree jazz came before rock. not sure what that has to do with my comment@@russellesimonetta9071
@@russellesimonetta9071 ummm yeah I'm watching a jazz messengers video but I thought rock came before? Wtf? I was in awe of his skill and you replied with a non sequitur. Or did I miss something?
Looks like the great late Mulgrew Miller on piano !
It is.
Straight up Smokin
Listen to Jean's solo @50:45 on Dr. Jackle. Is that a Complete Inversion @52:10?!?!!! Or is it just Monk Meets McLean? Either way! That's probably the hardest Improvisation I think I've ever heard man.
Caught that. Couldn't tell you to the tee exactly what's going on, but I heard it, as well.
Plaxico drives it like Ron Carter! Great!
He is far superior to Carter.
@@Rickriquinho Why so? They're both great!
Cleetus Awreetus, now i know, after end credits. Still, hell, what a band. Sweet!
where are the credits? Doktorema??
@@YTer-SBSB770 In the end.
Fantastic sounds! I once had the pleasure meeting 'Art blakey' a really beautiful guy, a handshake like steel so genuine lovely guy the best! Would you or anyone tell me the date or year of this gig?
Guess 1984 - that's a RS 25th Anniversary logo on the wall behind the stage I think - 1959-1984
@@gerrydoyle9774 THANK YOU even if it's an estimate!

Terrence Blanchard?
Don’t know, trying to figure out myself. 😎🎺
Yes.
Yes it is Terrence Blanchard, I was in the club that night. Recall it was sometime in middle 1980s.
Hot night at Ronnies.......maybe the hottest???
The drums aren't loud enough in the mix to my ears. Doesn't do the performance justice.
AndyPutt1 I think mix problem Art blanket is a legendary jazz drummer
Kin Edwin Art Blakey’s good too 😆
Hell, I mean, whos that alto/soprano player who's killing about everybody? As an senior i only recognize Buhaina.
the great Donald Harrison!
Cleetus Awreetus, I mean thanks, just one more great musician, that too few folks know about.
donal harrison on alto
Donald Harrison, I was in the audience that night, appx 1985.
Blake's body doesn't really even move. It's like it's just the arms lol laying the drums. So freeking brilliant. Greatest jazz drummer ever and quite possibly the greatest drummer ever in many genre.
13 negative voters don't have the faintest idea...
Cтранно, что рандомные звуки не в тему, называют музыкой...
A zillion times superior to the nauseating racket of Marsalis!
Wat?
Wat? ruclips.net/video/z4OEoIXMN4A/видео.html
I must be blind. Seriously trying to grok this jazz. sounds discordant to me.What am I not not getting? I must meditate.
It's a language. It takes time and will to see what is being said. As long as you're willing, interested, and patient you will get to hear the splendor of jazz. I believe it's truly one of the greatest things to have graced this planet; it's a language that, used well, speaks eloquently of clarity, imagination, intuition, devotion, courage, and will. It's powerful shit for those that want to hear it.
+Seanan Gibbs beautifuly put :) nice
Eat a diet of Oysters Naturale, drink only Gin Martinis and listen to Steely Dan, then you'll get it!
This is high-class jazz. Keep on listening.
