At the Jazz Corner of the World

Album by Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers

At the Jazz Corner of the World is a live album by Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers, released in 1959. The music is hard bop, characterised by assertive drumming, blues-rooted harmony, punchy horn lines and extended improvisation, and the release comes at a point when the Messengers were consolidating their role in postwar jazz as a proving ground for young players.
