Recorded on October 30, 1958, Moanin' is one of the most celebrated albums in jazz history, capturing Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers at the height of their hard bop power. Originally self-titled, the album was later renamed after Bobby Timmons' unforgettable opening track, and it introduced several Benny Golson compositions — including "Along Came Betty" and "Blues March" — that would go on to become enduring standards of the jazz songbook.
This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is an all-analog pressing, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal in Germany — making it an excellent choice for audiophiles and collectors seeking the most faithful reproduction of this landmark recording. As part of Blue Note's respected Classic Vinyl series, it brings one of the label's most iconic releases back to life with the care and quality it deserves.
