Live at Keystone Korner, San Francisco, 1981. Art Blakey pushing the young Wynton Marsalis edition of the band exactly the way he once pushed Clifford Brown and Lee Morgan - no mercy, no coasting, the press roll as a form of pedagogy. The title is the band's whole philosophy in two words. Bobby Watson and Billy Pierce flank the young trumpeter, and the rhythm section swings with the confidence of men who know the boss will accept nothing less. The machine never stopped; it just kept refueling with new talent. Japanese Concord Jazz pressing, clean and dynamic.
