Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers with Wynton Marsalis "In A Soulful Mood" 1999

These tracks look like a condensation of 2 volumes of Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers with Wynton Marsalis recorded Live in Florida in 1980……Also in the band are Bobby Watson alto sax, and Billy Pierce tenor sax. All 3 ballads are included but they don't stay ballads for long, as it is often necessary to pick up the tempo for soloing. Angel Eyes and My Funny Valentine are quartet features for Wynton. Watson and Pierce also solo on Round' 'Bout Midnight. - John M.members:

Art Blakey, Billy Pearce, Bobby Watson, Charles Fambrough, Ellis Marsalis, Jimmy Williams
