Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers – In My Prime

While jazz continued to turn, Art Blakey and his Jazz Messengers continued to ride the hard bop in the late seventies. And how. The best proof: those »In My Prime« sessions from December 1977, which appear here collected on one album for the first time. The record offers a rush of Art Blakey’s sensitive drums, James Williams’ piano and the sound of the other musicians. Every note sounds and feels alive. And makes this session so timeless.
