Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Reflections in Blue (Vinyl)
The Jazz Messengers were a jazz combo that was founded by Art Blakey,
together with Horace Silver. Soon after its founding, the Jazz Messengers
became known as an incubator for young talent.
Band leader Art Blakey led the collective for over 35 years. The 1978 formation has been described by critics as one of Blakey’s strongest groups in years, featuring trumpeter Valery Ponomarev, Robert Watson (also known as Bobby Watson) on alto saxophone, David Schnitter on tenor saxophone, Dennis Irwin on bass and James Williams on piano.
With this formation, he recorded the album Reflections In Blue in 1978
in the Netherlands and released the year after on Timeless Records.
Reflections In Blue is available as a limited edition of 2000 individually numbered
copies on translucent blue coloured vinyl.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
