Art Blakey was, without doubt, one of the most explosive and rock-solid swingingdrummers of all time. He also is one of the finest bandleaders and discoverersof new talent the music has ever known. On the title cut of 1960s A Night inTunisia, Art is at his most passionate, starting off with a solo full ofpolyrhythms, color and fire, nearly primal in its intensity. The word fire caneasily apply to this version of the Jazz Messengers, featuring the blisteringtrumpet of Lee Morgan, the highly original tenor-saxophonist Wayne Shorter, thefunky pianist Bobby Timmons and the always-reliable bassist Jymie Merritt. Inaddition to their remarkable instrumental prowess, Morgan, Shorter and Timmonswere skilled songwriters. Each contributes a song or two this classic set,including Timmons So Tired. However, it is the 11-minute version of DizzyGillespies A Night in Tunisia, given arguably its greatest recording, thatreally makes this album a transcendent jazz listening experience for the ages.
