Art Blakey and the Jazz Giants - what can I say. I was blown away by the sheer energy of the album. You could power the city of Bangalore if only we could learn how to tap it. And what's amazing is that he started out a pianist and was forcibly steered towards the skins virtually at gun point. And a damn good thing it was I must say. Or the world would have been bereft of a drummer par excellance.
He started playing on my stereo last night and I couldnt let him stop. I kept him in an eternal loop till I released him at 5 in the morning. And come 10 o clock, he's playing again on my laptop in the office. Sorry Art, you know what they say. There's no rest for the wicked.
