...BLAKEY WITH THE ORIGINAL JAZZ MESSENGERS (Jazz Odyssey). Drummer Blakey was the spark that lit up several small groups in the '50s.

He managed to put together a small chain in Texas before the Depression wiped him out, bounced back with shrewd and often audacious horse trading to collect a lineup of prestigious hotels. His first major move was to acquire the high-priced Town House in Los Angeles, but he really broke...
