More albums from Art Blakey: Art Blakey’s Big Band by Art Blakey. In This Korner by Art Blakey. Buttercorn Lady by Art Blakey. Orgy In Rhythm (Volume One) by Art Blakey. Europa Jazz by Art Blakey. Sonny Rollins With The Modern Jazz Quartet by Art Blakey.
The sound quality varies only slightly. By and large they sound better than the material issued by National or Blue Note. Later sessions include bands called the Bebop Boys with Kenny Dorham, Kenny Clarke, and Sonny Stitt. The second CD, Nostalgia, focuses on Navarro's work with Coleman Hawkins and Lockjaw Davis from sessions late in 1946 recorded for Savoy.

Art Blakey was an American Grammy Award-winning jazz drummer and bandleader. Art Blakey" and "Jazz Messengers" became synonymous over the years, though Blakey led many non-Messenger recording sessions. In addition to the 76 albums which he recorded as a leader or co-leader of the Jazz Messengers, Blakey also led 10 studio albums, 3 live albums and 4 compilation sessions.
Dameron returns on piano, nicely comping behind Gordon's already distinct solo work and more of Navarro's pearl-like horn lines (these numbers have also been released on various Gordon titles on Savoy). The disc ends with a date led by honking tenor man Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis, which, while less intriguing than the other sessions, stills swings mightily with a mix of bebop and R&B flavored tunes.
