Exact repro of this 1975 release. "Featuring a supporting cast including bassist Cleveland Freeman, trumpeters Charles Sullivan and Everett 'Blood' Hollins, and saxophonist Sonny Fortune, Spirit Man parallels Herbie Hancock's groundbreaking fusion dates in both the imagination and ferocity of Irvine's keyboards as well as the extraterrestrial reach of its electronic effects. This music is deep, funky, and deeply funky." --All Music Guide

Exact repro of the 1998 reissue, originally released on Blue Note in 1958. Featuring Sam Dockery (piano), Jimmy De Brest (bass), Bill Hardman (trumpet), John Griffin (tenor sax), Ferris Bender (alto sax) and Blakey (drums). "The Jazz Messengers are a relentless striking force under the command of Art Blakey with a credo compounded of the jazz language according to Charlie Parker and later direct descendants of Bird; a hard-driving beat; and the blues, which Blakey has described as 'the basis of jazz.'"
