A quick rain storm has come and now passed by. That’s spring here in NE Ohio. I am re-visting this Osby as I got distracted listening to it last night. I really like it. Greg Osby “The Invisible Hand” Blue Note cd  

PM incoming.

Though not a Jazz Messengers album, I somehow like Bluesiana Triangle, where Blakey participated as a drummer. Since it was recorded just before his death, you don't really feel much power anymore, but it has a rich, savory flavor. I think his strength wasn't power, but rather his excellent taste. He plays piano and sings too.
