Not to be confused with At the Jazz Corner of the World, the Messengers' 1959 Birdland recording (which featured tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley), Meet was recorded the following year at the band's favored venue with the still-rawboned tenorist Wayne Shorter joining trumpeter Lee Morgan on an explosive front line. Originally released in separate volumes but here presented as a two-CD set, the album maintains the Messengers' ties to the underappreciated Mobley via three originals that he never recorded himself. The emphasis is less on catchy tunes than full-bore blowing, with the rhythm section of Bobby Timmons, Jymie Merritt, and the unbeatable Blakey plumbing their bag of hard-bop tricks to push the music through the grooves.

Singer, guitarist and composer Rudy Rotta lived for the Blues. The original Italian, who grew up in Switzerland and conquered the world with his inspiring tours, exalted his audience with his impressive guitar playing and unmistakable blues spiced with funk and soul elements. Deceased in the summer of 2017, the artist had already acquired the status of "legend of the blues" during his lifetime.

Rudy Rotta - one of the most famous and best blues guitarists in Italy is back with his latest studio album Volo Sul Mondo. As the title suggests, it is - with the exception of the bonus track - an album completely in Italian! This is definitely not to be missed a blues fan!
