Product Description:
Moanin (Blue Note BST-4003) is widely regarded as one of the finest albums in the history of Art Blakeys Jazz Messengers. It was the first LP by the third formation of the group, featuring Lee Morgan, Benny Golson (composer of most of the songs), Bobby Timmons and Jymie Merritt. Lee Morgan (1938-1972) was only 20-years old at the time the Jazz Messengers recorded Moanin. Benny Golson is one of the last living legends of that era (he is 89 years-old at this writing). He wrote four of the songs from Moanin. Pianist Bobby Timmons stayed with Blakey from 1958 to 1961. He participated on some of the best Jazz Messengers recordings (including, of course, the present album), and contributed such hits of his own as the title track, Moanin. Like Morgan, Timmons died young (due to cirrhosis of the liver in 1974, at age 38).
