Hi all! Just joined this forum to post a question, as it's clear there are a lot of Blakey/Shorter experts on here. I'm trying to find information related to the woman "Joelle" was inspired by. She was a french girl living in NYC during the 1950s, at around 1958 was serving as Blakey's nanny. She took care of his daughter, Sakeena. Does anyone know anything else about her? I think she served as a kind of muse for multiple people, including Wayne Shorter who, of course, collaborated on that song. Any tips would be much appreciated! Thanks.
Art Blakey experts please ... ?
A few days ago someone posted this link here:

So beautiful music from Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers with Lee Morgan and Wayne Shorter - maybe around 1957-1965.
Can someone please tell me which title this is ?
Is it recorded on vinyl (studio or live) ?
Any inputs appreciated.
Thanks Alex
