More About Art Blakey
Art Blakey
(1919-1990)

Blakey was a beacon for the creativity and drive of acoustic jazz through the electric '70s. Miles Davis once remarked ÔIf Art Blakey's old-fashioned, I'm whiteÕ: this was borne out in the '80s when hard bop became all the rage. Ex-Jazz Messengers Wynton Marsalis and Terence Blanchard became the apostles of a return to jazz values. In England, a televised encounter in 1986 with the young turks of black British jazzÑincluding Courtney Pine and Steve WilliamsonÑshowed how Blakey's hipness transcended generations, as he taught the IDJ Dancers (ex-break dancers who decided I Dance Jazz) the complexities of A Night In Tunisia.
