Yes, I saw them in NYC at the Bottom Line , circa 1979, Blakey would seem to go into this zone to where his eyes would roll to the back of his head, and he was groovin so hard, it felt like he was having a outer body thing going, which was Great.
I wasn’t aware of this genius music! Thanks to the internet I’ve came across it and it enriched my entire life. I practice the piano every day thanks to these kind of musicians. They really inspire me to make something worthwhile of my life !
Freshness, passion, skill: so great! Everything that makes jazz. What has become of it in the last few years? A lot of things have become so boring. Few personalities and many people. Sad.
Came across Winton Marsalis from a History of Jazz Documentary. The way he narrated that Doc gave so much justice to Jazz that I knew listening to the brother play would be something spectacular.
Branford looked like e didn't appreciate how Donald Brown was noodling over top of him for just about all of his solo. Never heard anyone do that to him, before.
Donald Harrison is a alto player who was in the Messengers with Terrence Blanchard. Billy Pierce is on tenor and Donald Brown on piano. Great lineup but didn't hear much from Brown after the Messengers.
Art Blakey's 'Moanin'' was my introduction to Jazz....and what an introduction it was! Just incredible!

Back in the day, I would tune in to WJZZ Detroit (across the street from my office) to in-joy Art Blakey & Jazz Messengers ❤🎶❤
"Album Of The Year" truly was just that. Such a great band.
The quality and level of musicianship and ALSO their instruments is superb!
This video is still amazing till today, great job to the players 👌🏽
One badass group....I remember 7th Av South well
I hope I can drum like that when I'm in my 60s, jeez louise o:
Good stuff from a New Orleans native!!!
Very good!!!
Great. Greetings from Italy
What a great way to end my day putting some Jazz on which is the world's best music to falling asleep to because this is very relaxing.
Thanks for your comment, it's allowed me to enjoy this from a different perspective.
Master playing.. Thanks for sharing

It's not enough thanks to Winton Marsalis, but I'm even more proud of my life with the trumpet👍🎺🎶
Branford on alto?!?! Wow this is great stuff. And let's hear it for Charles Fambrough just killin it behind the soloists! Very nice.
Tenor sax, yes? Wow -- the second part of his solo,, upper register, sounds like alto??

Wonderful 🎺🎶!

This is a Bobby Watson's composition dedicated to Betty Carter.

Sounded much better here than on his Monette. (Sound wise).
クリームの頃のエリッククラプトンみたいだね。新星が覇気に溢れた演奏を繰り広げている。
