Block 13 of Jitu Weusi Weeksville Oral History (Q25855)

Jitu Weusi: I was buying Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers – I remember that “Blues March”, this was The [Jazz] Messengers where he had Bobby Timmons, Lee Morgan, Wayne Shorter, Jymie Merritt… And I was listening to Horace Silver, “Senor Blues” and his different compositions. I liked Horace Silver’s music, I liked Art Blakey… those were the opening, sort of teenage years of listening to records...
