Our Take

Review: ART BLAKEY The Jazz Messengers

Get ready to swing and sway with this reissue of ART BLAKEY's The Jazz Messengers, a classic album that still manages to make us tap our feet and nod our heads in approval. From the opening notes of "Moanin'" to the closing bars of "Are You Real?", Blakey and his band of merry misfits deliver a rollicking ride through the world of hard bop.

The infectious energy and pulsating rhythms of the title track set the tone for the rest of the album, with each member of the band given ample opportunity to shine. Whether it's Lee Morgan's trumpet solos that soar to dizzying heights or Benny Golson's smooth saxophone licks that caress our ears, every musician brings their A-game to the table.

But it's not all about virtuoso performances and technical prowess - there's plenty of heart and soul to be found in tracks like "Along Came Betty" and "Blues March", where the band's tight-knit chemistry shines through. And let's not forget the timeless classic "Moanin'", a track that remains as fresh and invigorating today as it did when it was first recorded.

In the end, The Jazz Messengers is a testament to the enduring power of jazz music, and a reminder that sometimes the oldies really are the goodies. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sit back, and let the music take you on a journey through the swinging sounds of a bygone era. Cheers to that!
