"More cowbell!"

You know you won't upset me with this kind of embed...even with the name The Jazz Messengers, Blakey's work with younger players, and so many over the years, was less a cult, whether good-natured (such as Sun Ra's Arkestra) or less so (the Miles Davis bands), than many of his peers' longstanding rotations through generations of "sidemen"...a good reading, indeed, this one.

Indeed wonderful. Check out the Club Saint Germain live album, it's from about the same time as the clip and has the same lineup.
