Art Blakey/Jazz Messengers


Just bought the remastered 24/96 of Moanin'...any other titles that come to mind? I love the stuff with Lee Morgan...any thoughts?

I have only three Blakely LP's that feature Morgan and would like to find more.

"Big Beat" - also includes Wayne Shorter on TS. Not sure if it was CD'd.

"Les Femmes Disparaissent" not quite as good, but interesting. From a French movie soundtrack, includes Dizzy, and Stan Getz, among other luminaries. I know the CD for this one is available.

"Drums Around the Corner" - Find this one if you can. In addition to Blakey and Morgan, there are a few other jazz drummers that had a modicum of success on this LP -
Philly Joe Jones, Ray Barretto, Roy Haynes! :-)
