This incarnation of the group included Lee Morgan, Wayne Shorter, Bobby Timmons, and Jymie Merritt along with their leader, Blakey. As the Messengers entered their most fruitful period for Blue Note, Blakey drove his men relentlessly with powerful grooves, heavy swinging, and shouts of encouragement. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis session documents the full power of his assertive leadership and the masterful playing of his sidemen, each rising to legendary status under his tutelage. Long known for their creative arrangements within the context of small-group jazz, the Messengers push the definition of hard bop and blues to the limit here. Dizzy Gillespie's title track is evidence enough of the creative power of this group: Blakey's steam shovel-like mambo, Morgan and Shorter's wailing solos, and a dramatic ending make for a stunning piece. Shorter's contribution includes the swinging \"Sincerely Diana.\" The soulful Bobby Timmons presents his delightful \"So Tired,\" a bluesy number in the spirit of his classic \"Dat Dere.\" Also included are Lee Morgan's smoky \"Yama,\" the bouncing \"Kozo's Waltz,\" and the classic \"When Your Lover Has Gone.\" — (via AllMusic)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/0oGkNKWrFghBenF0j16VVW?utm_source=generator\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Blue Note, UMe\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Stereo, 180g\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2024 \/ Original Release: 1960\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Hard Bop\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: Blue Note\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Note Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44481643348126,"sku":"602465007640","price":48.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/art-blakey-tunisia-artwork_1_266b2d9a-3a68-4e51-b44f-a332fc2834cb-copy.jpg?v=1730794328","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/art-blakey-the-jazz-messengers-a-night-in-tunisia-2024-blue-note-classic-vinyl-series","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
