Max Roach – Art Blakey – Percussion Discussion (Appr. 1957) (Chess)
Appr. 1957 | Genre: Jazz | EAC RIP | FLAC+CUE+LOG+HQ-Covers (400Dpi) | 455Mb+4Mb
This CD from Chess (originally on a 2-LP set) combines together unrelated sessions led by drummer Max Roach or Art Blakey, both of which were originally made for the Cadet label. Blakey features the 1957 version of his Jazz Messengers (which includes altoist Jackie Mclean, trumpeter Bill Hardman, pianist Sam Dockery and bassist Spanky Debrest) on a pair of Duke Jordan songs (including "Flight to Jordan"), a selection apiece from Blakey and altoist Gigi Gryce and a brief four-song "Gershwin Medley." The Roach selections are most significant for featuring a young pianist named Ramsey Lewis in a straightahead setting; the other musicians are trumpeter Kenny Dorham, Hank Mobley on tenor and bassist George Morrow, and the music is dominated by group originals. Overall, neither of the two sets are essential or overly innovative, and unfortunately the sound quality is rather poor, but they helped to define what hard bop sounded like in the late '50s and will be savored by straightahead jazz fans and/or collectors.

It's my pleasure, gentlemen. As I mentioned it's a pity that the overall sound quality is rather poor. There are much better recordings and sometimes excellent sounding ones made in the late 50s, f.i. most RVG recordings for Blue Note. However, for arts sake I've posted this one too.
