Originally self-titled, the album was later renamed Moanin' due to the popularity of Timmons' unforgettable opening track. Featuring the great drummer with trumpeter Lee Morgan, tenor saxophonist Benny Golson, pianist Bobby Timmons, and bassist Jymie Merritt, the album also introduced several indelible Golson compositions that would become standards of the jazz songbook including, \"Along Came Betty\" and \"Blues March.\" Blue Note Essential Series is mastered from hi-resolution digital masters on 140g vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoanin'\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAre You Real\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlong Came Betty\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrum Thunder Suite\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlues March\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCome Rain or Come Shine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Moanin (Blue Note Essentials Series)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43676107636825,"sku":null,"price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1566\/5093\/files\/unilp59308__79265.jpg?v=1784228910","url":"https:\/\/www.yellowdogdiscs.com\/products\/art-blakely-and-the-jazz-messengers","provider":"Yellow Dog Discs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
