1957's Second Edition is rare material from the second version of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. The first six selections are the full contents of a long out of print Vik LP that find the Messengers (with tenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin, trumpeter Bill Hardman, pianist Sam Dockery, bassist Spanky DeBrest, and the drummer/leader) playing six songs by Lerner & Loewe including "Almost Like Being in Love," "On the Street Where You Live," and "I Could Have Danced All Night." In addition, the same group is heard on two previously unreleased alternate takes with altoist Jackie McLean (who was actually Griffin's predecessor) making the band a sextet, and there are three numbers (including two "new" takes) from an expanded unit (called "The Jazz Messengers Plus Two") which features such players as a very young Lee Morgan (making his debut with Blakey a year before he joined the group), Hardman, trombonist Melba Liston, Griffin, and pianist Wynton Kelly. But rarity aside, the performances should please straight-ahead jazz fans.

This album started life as Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers - Selections From Lerner And Loewe's for RCA's Vik label, then morphed into Second Edition.

The first six tracks are the Lerner And Loewe's session where a lesser known line-up of the Messengers performed that duo's hits. These were recorded in a single session at Webster Hall in NYC on March 13, 1957 by an ensemble comprised of Bill Hardman on trumpet and Johnny Griffin on tenor sax, backed by Sam Dockery on piano, Spanky DeBrest on bass and Blakey on drums.

Tracks 7 through 9 were recorded at RCA's Studio 3 in NYC on April 2, 1957. This was a large line-up with both Messengers members and others: Bill Hardman and Lee Morgan on trumpet, Melba Liston on trombone, Sahib Shihab on alto sax, Johnny Griffin on tenor sax and Cecil Payne on baritone sax. The rhythm section was comprised of Wynton Kelly on piano, Spanky DeBrest on bass and Art Blakey on drums.

Final two tracks were recorded in NYC on April 8, 1957 with Bill Hardman on trumpet and Johnny Griffin on tenor sax and Jackie McLean on alto sax. The rhythm section was comprised of Sam Dockery on piano, Spanky DeBrest on bass and Blakey on drums.

This album is definitely off the beaten path for the Jazz Messengers, but the guest musicians add a lot to it. One of the main reasons to grab it is Bill Hardman who had a few stints with the Jazz Messengers, and is highly underrated. Of course, Griffin adds a lot, as do the members of the April 2 session.

If you are a Jazz Messengers fan this is a rare treat. My favorite is the first six tracks, which adds to the uniqueness since I do not think the Messengers did a theme album before or since (although they did a French film score.)
