Albums First Released in 1958
Hard bop supplied much of jazz's momentum in 1958, combining blues, gospel and bebop with strong ensemble playing. Standout albums from 1958 include Moanin' by Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, Relaxin' With The Miles Davis Quintet by The Miles Davis Quintet, Cool Struttin' by Sonny Clark and Lady in Satin by Billie Holiday.

Our Pick of the Year: Moanin' by Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers
Moanin' introduced one of the best-known versions of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. Bobby Timmons wrote the title track, while Blues March and Along Came Betty gave the band a clear mix of gospel feeling, blues phrasing and hard-bop drive. It remains a practical starting point for listeners exploring Blue Note jazz.
