Our Take

The latest reissue of Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers' classic album, "A Night In Tunisia," is like a juicy slice of orange marble vinyl that you just can't resist sinking your teeth into. This vibrant pressing adds a whole new level of zest to an already iconic jazz record.

From the moment the needle hits the groove, you're transported to a smoky 1950s jazz club, where the music is hot, the drinks are cold, and the vibes are oh-so-cool. Blakey's powerhouse drumming drives the band forward with relentless energy, while the rest of the Messengers keep pace with precision and flair.

Tracks like the title track "A Night In Tunisia" and "Yama" are like a rollercoaster ride through a sonic wonderland, with dizzying solos and tight ensemble playing that will leave you breathless. The chemistry between the musicians is palpable, as they feed off each other's energy and push each other to new heights.

The orange marble vinyl adds a touch of nostalgia to the listening experience, transporting you back to a time when music was king and vinyl was the medium of choice. So pour yourself a glass of something smooth, dim the lights, and let Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers take you on a magical musical journey that you won't soon forget. Cheers to that!
