Music reviews of The Jazz Messengers
Music Review: An oldie but a goodie
Rating: 4 Stars
This CD was ordered by mistake. The LP was lost in '94, recouped about '05, and has been here ever since. It is a definate "Should Have" for connoisseurs of that ol' bebop magic that Art Blakey weaves so well. With Hank Mobley and Donald Byrd, two consumate hard bop jammers, out front, Mobley's "Infra-Rae" is off and (yes) jammin'. Excellent solos, backed by Silver. Horace's beautiful classic tribute to the lady P, "Nica's Dream", is next. Notice how he keeps the mood going behind everybody, including his own brilliant solo. Byrd, then Mobley, bring "You Or No One" out, in front of a hard-swinging Doug Watkins, who is strong throughout. This is a hot jam! Silver's "Ecaroh" opens side 2. He just writes great stuff, period. Swinging solos by Mobley, Byrd, himself, interjections from Art. This is a cool jam! Mobley's "Carol's Interlude" has everybody cookin'. Art's work, here, almost defies description. Notice the Sonny Rollins influence on Mobley on "Love Affair" (and elsewhere), as he, Byrd and Silver 'smoke' out in front of Watkins and Blakey. "Hanks Symphony" has everbody doing the Mambo, until Art Blakey busts out with one of the sharpest, most intense drum solos ever heard. This is a very good set to have, especially while Amazon is still "giving" it away. (joke)
