ART BLAKEY w/ Wynton & Branford Marsalis, B. Pierce, D. Brown, C. Fambrough - LIVE

Here is another treasure from the CRATES, i.e., dusty boxes of Betamax videotapes (some unlabeled) that were recorded from television broadcasts when Beta was the video standard and VHS had not yet emerged as a competitor.

This is the classic edition of the Jazz Messengers when Art Blakey was introducing the Marsalis brothers on the international jazz scene. Wynton was also the band's musical director at that time. The tune being performed is "Little Man", a Charles Fambrough composition written for his son.
