ART BLAKEY w/ Wynton & Branford Marsalis, J. Jackson, 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..

============
Wynton Marsalis -- trumpet
Branford Marsalis -- alto saxophone

Donald Brown!

Thanks for adding this. This was one great band. They don't come like this anymore. I always loved this tune of Fambrough's (Little Man). He was not only a great bassist but a great composer. RIP Charles Fambrough.

That's some great music. And this tape is pristine!

This stuff is gold! Broadcast like this were thrown out by studios years ago. It's great to see you've preserved and shared it!
