I was born in 1980 and the fact that there is no way I could have seen this live, but to know if I had I think it would be like seeing God type level of announcement type realization. Must have changed some lives.

About 30 years after this was filmed, I saw Art playing Ronnie Scott's. It was an astounding gig, one of the best I've ever been to and an evening I hope I'll never forget.

Art was a true inspiration and master of drumming! He was on another level and it was and is always will be just pure and virtuosic musicality that came from him! Amazingness!

This was right after Bennie Golson and Bobbie Timmons split. Like Miles, Blakey kept a revolving door to the finest cadre of fresh young talent during the Golden Age of New York jazz.

At 16, in 1974, I was the only rock drummer in town that listened to Art Blakey. I was hooked the first time I heard Caravan. He has been in my top 4 or 5 drummers since. And this post shows how did all of that stuff.

To ALL of you showing love, your kind words, on behalf of the Blakey family, THANK YOU. My paps loved to know his music moved you in a positive way. If he made you smile, clap your hands, stomp your feet, get up and dance, or lay back and enjoy the moment- then he accomplished what he wanted. Love you ALL

Art Blakey was the best ever. No other drummer moves me like that. It’s outer worldly. My favorite album is Free For All. Much respect to your family. Pittsburgh is a legendary jazz city.

Rest assured that your grandfather touched people around the world and throughout time. I'm from Denmark and only discovered Art Blakey in the late 1990s. He's such a great band leader! Makes you want to get out of that chair and dance!
