Warm and Delightful Art Blakey

Wilson Hong | Taipei Taiwan | 07/08/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This albulm was published by SONY-Columbia Record, Art Blakey did not have lots of records under this brand. But surprisingly, the artists of this record are all the best of HardBop era, including Donald Byrd, Horace Silver, Hank Mobley etc. As being an Art Blakey fan, I'd like to rate this albulm as one of my favorite records. The songs of this record are smooth with strong emtotion inside, full of power and keep on going with the hot temple which Blakey has devoted to. I have to say, Byrd has a charming performance in this record, he is sweet and warm. The lines he played were lovely and strong, but never too sharp. Blakey also had some extended drum solos in this albulm, which bring me high. Silver's piano is also delightful and clear, it sure will catch your ears! My favorite titles of this albulm are "Nica's Dream" and "Ecaroh", but the rest of this albulm are also good as you expected. After having a taste on this Albulm you will convince yourself that Blakey and his Jazz Messangers are one of the best Jazz music "factory"!"
