One for All (Art Blakey album)


One for All is the final studio album by drummer Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers recorded in 1990 and released on the A&M label.

Reception

Scott Yanow of Allmusic stated "The final recording by Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers found the 70-year old drummer doing what he loved best, leading a group of young players through hard-swinging and generally new music in the hard-bop style... A satisfying final effort from an irreplaceable drummer and bandleader".
