More Info:

More than any other album in the canon of Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers, 1958’s Moanin’ – featuring the great drummer with trumpeter Lee Morgan, tenor saxophonist Benny Golson, pianist Bobby Timmons and bassist Jymie Merritt was the perfect crystallization of the bands bluesy, soulful sound, and it still stands today as perhaps the most quintessential hard bop recording off all-time. Originally self-titled, the album was later renamed Moanindue to the popularity of Timmonsunforgettable opening track. The album also introduced several indelible Golson compositions that would become standards of the jazz songbook, including Along Came Betty,and Blues March.
