Review:
by Matt Collar
Originally released in 1964, Golden Boy features drummer Art Blakey and his Jazz Messengers performing songs from the Lee Adams and Charles Strouse Broadway musical for which the album is titled. Based off the play, written by Clifford Odets and William Gibson, Golden Boy was a socially conscious musical about a Harlem prize-fighter trying to escape his working class roots. A somewhat obscure Blakey release, Golden Boy nonetheless features plenty of improvisatory, hard bop firepower.

Reseña:
por Matt Collar
Publicado originalmente en 1964, Golden Boy presenta al baterista Art Blakey y sus Jazz Messengers interpretando canciones del musical de Broadway de Lee Adams y Charles Strouse que da título al álbum. Basado en la obra de teatro, escrita por Clifford Odets y William Gibson, Golden Boy era un musical con conciencia social sobre un boxeador de Harlem que intentaba escapar de sus raíces de clase trabajadora. Golden Boy es un disco de Blakey un tanto oscuro, pero que cuenta con una gran capacidad de improvisación y hard bop.
