Jazzloft:
Fabulous, radio tape quality live recordings of Blakey & The Jazz Messengers on their first Scandinavian tour. A young Wayne Shorter had recently joined the band, which already contained a slightly younger Lee Morgan, plus Jymie Merritt (bass) and Walter Davis Jnr who had recently replaced Bobby Timmons on piano. They stretch out and swing through 5 extended pieces including "Lester Left Town", "Night In Tunisia", and a masterly version of "Like Someone In Love"
