Happy birthday to the legendary Art Blakey, who was born on this day in 1919!
Blakey made a name for himself in the 40s in the big bands of Fletcher Henderson and Billy Eckstine. He then worked with bebop musicians Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, and Dizzy Gillespie.
In the mid-1950s, Horace Silver and Blakey formed the Jazz Messengers, a group which he led for the next 35 years…
Here we can see Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers performing “A Night In Tunisia”
