Live hard bop at its finest – burning solos, tight arrangements, and unstoppable energy.

3 Blind Mice captures Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers in full flight during a pair of 1962 live sets recorded in San Francisco. With a frontline of Freddie Hubbard (trumpet), Curtis Fuller (trombone), and Wayne Shorter (tenor sax), this incarnation of the Messengers is among the most potent ever assembled. ​ From the driving swing of ‘Blue Moon’ to the explosive title track, the album blends fierce ensemble playing with standout individual solos. Blakey’s drumming is thunderous and propulsive throughout, pushing the band to peak after peak. 3 Blind Mice is a thrilling document of a band at the height of its powers.
