A definitive 180‑gram audiophile edition of A Night in Tunisia, recorded circa 1958 by the second iteration of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers. This lineup features a rare pairing of Johnny Griffin on tenor saxophone and Ferris Bender (Jackie McLean) on alto — the only known recorded instance of these two giants performing together.
Blakey leads a powerhouse ensemble including Bill Hardman, Sam Dockery and Jimmy DeBrest through a dynamic hard bop set, highlighted by an extended interpretation of Dizzy Gillespie’s A Night in Tunisia, the Blakey/McLean composition Couldn’t It Be You?, and a spirited take on Sonny Rollins’ Evans.
Presented as a limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on orange coloured vinyl, this release comes housed in a deluxe linen‑laminate sleeve, restoring a cornerstone of late‑50s hard bop to premium vinyl form.
