Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Just Coolin
Just Coolin' is a hard bop jazz album by Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers, recorded in 1959 but not officially released until 2020 as part of Blue Note’s archival series. Featuring a classic lineup with Lee Morgan, Hank Mobley, Bobby Timmons, and Jymie Merritt, the album captures the group at a creative peak, delivering energetic, swinging performances and sophisticated improvisation. Tracks like “Just Coolin’,” “Hipsippy Blues,” and “Close Your Eyes” showcase the Messengers’ signature blend of bluesy soul, tight ensemble playing, and explosive drumming from Blakey, making the release a valuable historic snapshot of one of jazz’s most influential bands in the hard bop era.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR RECORDS
Always handle your vinyl by its edges and label, avoiding fingerprints on the grooves. Before and after each play, gently clean the surface with a carbon-fiber anti-static brush or a dedicated record-cleaning solution to remove dust and debris. Store records upright in their sleeves, away from heat, humidity, and direct sunlight to preserve sound quality and prevent warping..
