Live in '65 is a DVD of an Art Blakey concert in Paris in 1965.
Recording and music
The concert was recorded in black and white.[2]
Of the four tracks, "The Hub" and "Crisis" are Hubbard compositions.[1] Hubbard's "strikingly unpredictable solos, at times distantly related to Red Allen's, are the main attraction though Blakey plays a phenomenal solo on 'Crisis', the flashing sticks superimposed very effectively over his smiling face. This track, with solos all round, lasts for 24 minutes and 'Blue Moon' (a feature for Hubbard) and 'The Hub' are also lengthy, with the 'Theme' a very brief closer."[2]
Release
The recording was released as a 60-minute DVD by Jazz Icons, licensed to Naxos Records.[3] "The digital remastering of the slightly grainy black and white source film results in acceptable picture and good audio quality."[1]
