When
Billy Eckstine
's band dissolved in the mid-1940s, adventurous drummer
Art Blakey
spent two years in Africa, where he briefly converted to Islam; back in New York, he gigged with
Miles
and
Monk
, before fronting his own
Jazz Messengers
. 1957's
Orgy In Rhythm
drew on the sounds of North Africa and the Middle East, Blakey's unfettered drumming accompanied by Latin percussionists such as
Potato Valdez
and
Evilio Quintero
, with
Herbie Mann
on flute. The musical arrangement is stunning, at times melodic or primordially rhythmic, but never short of pure brilliance. Overall, an excellent and astounding release!
