Art Blakey & JM - A Night In Tunisia (MFSL & RVG) (eac-flac-cover)

Art Blakey & JM - A Night In Tunisia (MFSL & RVG version)
jazz | 1+1cd | eac-flac-cue-log-cover | 370+360MB
MFSL UDCD601 + BN RVG2004 24-bit remaster
AMG:
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.
