    About this album

    Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers is a hard bop milestone that captures the drummer-led band at full strength, balancing hard-driving swing with elegant, modern harmonic lines. Issued in 1961, the album reflects the Jazz Messengers’ role as one of the defining ensembles of post-bop jazz, a proving ground for rising soloists and a model for tight, high-energy group interplay. Blakey’s propulsive drumming gives the record its urgency, while the frontline writing and improvising bring vivid colour to standards and originals alike. It remains a key statement in the group’s legacy and a fine example of hard bop at its most focused and combustible.
