Legendary drummer Art Blakey actively participated in the great revolutions of Jazz. From the modernization of Bebop to the emergence of Hard Bop, this rhythmic genius was a cornerstone in the evolution of the genre.
Released in January 1962, 'Mosaic' is one of the many gems that Art Blakey and his Jazz Messengers offered to connoisseurs of the genre. Surrounded by young jazz virtuosos such as Freddie Hubbard (trumpet), Curtis Fuller (trombone), Wayne Shorter (saxophone), Cedar Walton (piano), and the experienced Jymie Meritt (double bass), Art Blakey delivered another Hard Bop classic. On this album, we note the arrival of Freddie Hubbard, replacing Lee Morgan, with Hubbard already having classic albums as a leader like ‘Open Sesame’ and ‘Going Up’ on Blue Note.
