Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - S/T

This is truly one of the great classics of hard bop, with drummer Art Blakey leading arguably his greatest Jazz Messengers lineup through a driving program that never lets up. Tenor saxophonist Benny Golson (whose composition Along Came Betty is heard here, subsequently becoming a jazz classic), brilliant trumpeter Lee Morgan, and funky pianist Bobby Timmons (who wrote the hit title cut) each take some of the best solos of their great careers, and Blakey was never greater. No jazz record collection should be without this disc. It remains one of the premier items in Blue Note's catalogue, and rightfully so.

Tracklist:
1. Moanin'
2. Are You Real
3. Along Came Betty
4. The Drum Thunder (Miniature) Suite
5. Blues March
6. Come Rain Or Come Shine
