Nowhere is this more so than on their re-working of The Jazz Messengers on ‘Announcement By Art Blakey’. Since The Jazz Messengers last CD (At the Cafe Bohemia Vol. 2) on Capitol Records back in 1955, I have felt a massive void in my life. On At the Cafe Bohemia Vol. 2 album, The Jazz Messengers have renewed their membership in the ‘if it ain’t broke…’ school of songwriting. At the Cafe Bohemia Vol. 2 is the best essence of The Jazz Messengers.
Sportin’ Crowd the elegant and beautiful song on the album is hard to describe. One of the more genuine-sounding songs is Like Someone In Love. Yesterdays - The Jazz Messengers first major hit. Avila & Tequila is the more seemingly obscure song on At the Cafe Bohemia Vol. 2 that bear up best to repeated listening. I Waited For You can be hardly overrated by any means; this is what The Jazz Messengers is all about. You can find feelings on this piece of art. Hank’s Symphony - is a breath or fresh air compared to many previous songs of The Jazz Messengers. Gone With The Wind is the most memorable and excellent.
