NEW RELEASE

ART BLAKEY AND THE JAZZ MESSENGERS – Second Set Lausanne 1960

LABEL: NAKED LUNCH

CAT NO. ND015

Lee Morgan – trumpet, Wayne Shorter – tenor sax, Bobby Timmons – piano, Jymie Merrit – bass and Art Blakey – drums. Needless to remind that this was one of Blakey’s strongest line ups ever. A powerful and highly dynamic combo featuring young and yet very distinctive personalities driven by Blakey’s unprecedented force of nature. Hard Bop fans will be delighted by the re-release of this famous concert held in Lausanne (Switzerland) in 1960, where the second set featured, among others, an intense rendition of Monk’s classic "Round About Midnight" and the famous inflamed take on "A Night in Tunisia".
