A Night in Tunisia [RVG Edition], Art Blakey - The lengthy title track on this CD easily overshadows the rest of the program for it is one of the most exciting versions ever recorded of Dizzy Gillespie 's "A Night in Tunisia." Trumpeter Lee Morgan (then only in his early 20s), tenor saxophonist Wayne Shorter , pianist Bobby Timmons and bassist Jymie Merritt formed one of the strongest of the many versions of Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers and are actually in fine form during the remainder of the satisfying (if anticlimactic) set. [Originally...

Freddie Hubbard : Rvg Edition: Open Sesame - This album's title and cover welcome the listener to trumpeter Freddie Hubbard's initial outing as a bandleader, and it's a fine Blue Note debut.

Black Fire [RVG Edition] - 's debut record for Blue Note , was an impressive statement of purpose that retains much of its power decades after its initial release. Hill 's music is quite original, building from a hard bop foundation and moving into uncharted harmonic and rhythmic territory. His compositions and technique take chances; he often sounds restless, searching relentlessly for provocative voicings, rhythms, and phrases. Black Fire borrows from the avant-garde, but it's not part of it -- the structures remain quite...

Clubhouse [RVG Edition] - The Dexter Gordon album Clubhouse has had somewhat of an ill-fated history. Gordon had been living since 1962 in Europe, but he returned to the states briefly in 1965 to fulfill some contractual obligations, which included delivering two albums for Blue Note Records . A single long session on May 1927, 1965 featuring a quintet of Gordon on tenor sax, Freddie Hubbard on trumpet, Barry Harris on piano, Billy Higgins on drums and Bob Cranshaw on bass ( Ben Tucker plays bass on his own composition...

Detroit-New York Junction [RVG Edition] - For his first session as a leader for Blue Note , trumpeter Thad Jones ran through five songs with a small group which also included fellow Detroiters pianist Tommy Flanagan and guitarist Kenny Burrell as well as part-time Detroiter tenor saxophonist Billy Mitchell . Jones ' time with Debut certainly broke him in, and he is thoroughly professional on this record. Compared to its predecessor, The Fabulous Thad Jones , and its successor, The Magnificent Thad Jones , Detroit-New York Junction pales...

Feelin' the Spirit [RVG Edition] - Broadening his musical palette, Grant Green detoured into a number of "theme" sessions in 1962 -- the light Latin jazz of Latin Bit ; the country & western standards of Goin' West ; and the best of the bunch, the old-timey gospel album Feelin' the Spirit . For Feelin' the Spirit, Green takes five traditional, public-domain African-American spirituals (plus the CD bonus track "Deep River" ) and gives them convincing jazz treatments in a quartet-plus-tambourine setting. Green 's light touch and...

Introducing Johnny Griffin [RVG Edition] - This CD reissue does not have tenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin 's first recording as a leader (he made a few sides for OKeh in 1953 and a full album for Argo a few months earlier in 1956), but it gained Griffin a great deal of attention. Soon billed as "the world's fastest saxophonist," Griffin was also a superior ballad interpreter with a fairly distinctive tone of his own. With strong support given by pianist Wynton Kelly , bassist Curly Russell , and drummer Max Roach , Griffin romps on three...

Leapin' and Lopin' [RVG Edition] - 's final recording as a leader gives no hint as to his increasingly erratic lifestyle (he passed away in January 1963). Heading a quintet with trumpeter Tommy Turrentine , tenor saxophonist Charlie Rouse , bassist Butch Warren , and drummer Billy Higgins , Clark introduces such originals as the modestly titled "Somethin' Special," "Melody for C," and "Voodoo" ; "Deep in a Dream" was the date's only standard. The CD reissue adds Clark 's formerly unknown "Zellmar's Delight" and the alternate of...

Like Someone in Love [RVG Edition] - is a product of the fertile group that included saxophonist Wayne Shorter , trumpeter Lee Morgan , pianist Bobby Timmons , and bassist Jymie Merritt . While it is not usually considered an essential Blakey album, it is easily one of the best. This is due not only to the impressive Jazz Messenger musicianship, but more significantly to the stellar original compositions by Shorter , who was coming into his own not only as an improviser, but perhaps more significantly as an adept and forward-thinking...

Somethin' Else [RVG Edition] - It isn't too difficult to understand why MFSL considered this album to be a worthy candidate for an Ultradisc reissue -- aside from Cannonball Adderley , you have a lineup that includes Miles Davis , Hank Jones , Sam Jones , and Art Blakey . This is a group that could take on a Barry Manilow number and turn it into a jazz masterpiece. MFSL have done the purchaser a favor, too, by including an additional track that was left off the original album. This sixth track, "Alison's Uncle," closes out...
