| Over several decades, the 'Art Blakey School of Jazz,' also known as The Jazz Messengers, produced some of our most treasured talents. This vigorous two CD set, from live concerts in The Netherlands, dates from 1978 through 1983, considered a later period of the Blakey phenomenon. His personnel at that time included heavyweights such as Valery Ponomarev, Bobby Watson, James Williams, Terrence Blanchard and Donald Harrison. These well-recorded concerts include some adventurous compositions from the above named players, including 'Time Will Tell' and 'E.T.A.' from Watson; and 'Dr. J.' and '1977 A.D.' from Williams. Blakey never shied away from standards, and these performances included 'My One and Only Love,' 'Stairway to the Stars' and 'Polka Dots and Moonbeams.' The compositions of some illustrious alumni of the Blakey School are also represented with Benny Golson's 'Along Came Betty' and 'Blues March'; and Bobby Timmons' 'Moanin'.' Any previously unreleased material from jazz superstars is always welcome. And the Blakey set only marks the beginning. Look for material from the likes of Mulligan, Getz, and Evans! --Jazz Society of Oregon, George Fendel, March 29, 2011 |
