Holiday For Skins Vol 1
LP (Item 57831) Blue Note, 1958 — Condition: Used
The rarest of all of Art Blakey's percussion group projects – and quite possibly the best, too! The session features Blakey at the head of a strong mix of jazz and percussion players – with Art Taylor and Philly Joe Jones on the regular drum kit, Donald Byrd on trumpet and Ray Bryant on piano, and a host of assorted percussion work by the likes of Ray Barretto, Sabu Martinez, Victor Gonzalez, Julio Martinez, and others. The resultant sound is incredible – very full, rich, and earthy – and done in a way that interweaves African and Latin percussion styles with straighter American jazz! A few cuts have chanting by Blakey and Sabu – and titles on this first volume include "The Feast", "Mirage", "Lamento Africano", and "Aghano". (63rd street deep groove pressing, with RVG stamp and ear! Vinyl is clean, with a few light marks. Cover is heavy, glossy, and nice overall – with just a few light scratches in one corner.) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
