New Unreleased Art Blakey


'Just Coolin'...is the new previously unreleased Art Blakey album.  I'm a Lee Morgan fanatic and I'm on a quest to track down every recording he ever appeared on.  If you are a Morgan or Jazz Messenger fan, you need to give this a listen.  Check it out on Pandora or Napster.

I recently picked up Blakey's Live In Paris "65 with his Freddie Hubbard, Nathan Davis, Jaki Byard, and Reggie Workman group. I have Just Coolin' on my wishlist, but am in no hurry to get it especially after the review.
I suggest you listen to the album on your streaming subscription service..Pandora, Spotify, Tidal..etc..
Listen for yourself and make your own decision. 

I've read too many reviews that I didn't agree with.  

As Richard Pryor once said:
"No one ever paid to see a critic"
Thanks for the heads up on the new Art Blakey release Mitch. I’ll be sure to get it. I'm sure it will be an enjoyable listen as the both the Jazz Messengers and Lee Morgan are always a treat. It's great to have something new from the vaults by either.

Give me some credit! I don’t take any critic’s word as gospel even Michael Fremer whose views I don’t always agree with. If you are a big Lee Morgan fan, and you don’t already have it, I would like to recommend the film I Called Him Morgan, available on DVD. It features great music and interviews from Wayne Shorter, Jymie Merritt, and of course his common law wife, Helen, who ended his life.
