($15-$30 | 7pm & 9pm Shows) "Hard Bop Revisited!" offers a captivating journey into the lesser-known gems of Blue Note Records, showcasing the exceptional talents of legendary soloists and composers like Kenny Dorham, Hank Mobley, and Lee Morgan. These artists were at the forefront of the Hard Bop movement, a jazz subgenre that emerged in the late 1950s as a response to the cooler and more cerebral sounds of West Coast Jazz. With a renewed emphasis on rhythmic intensity, bluesy melodies, and a powerful sense of swing, these musicians breathed new life into the jazz scene.

Kenny Dorham's nuanced trumpet work, Hank Mobley's soulful saxophone expressions, and Lee Morgan's fiery trumpet solos shine brightly in this collection. Their compositions offer a vibrant blend of innovation and tradition, as they fuse elements of bebop with the raw energy of R&B and gospel music. "Hard Bop Revisited!" not only resurrects these hidden treasures but also pays homage to the dynamic period of jazz history when these artists were pushing the boundaries of the genre. This compilation serves as a reminder of their indelible contributions and the enduring impact they had on shaping the course of jazz music.
