Perhaps the finest bandleader of all-time, Art Blakey pushes one of his finest Jazz Messenger lineups to soar on this scorcher of a recording. Blakey showcases his trademark passion and intensity while also allowing sidemen Lee Morgan, Wayne Shorter, Bobby Timmons and Jymie Merritt to shine with both masterful playing and inventive song-writing. A Night In Tunisia definitely represents one of the creative peaks of this dynamic lineup of The Jazz Messengers.
