LIVE AT THE SMITHSONIAN: ART BLAKEY
Jazz Masters Series
Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers
Art Blakey was an acknowledged musical master, a founder of modern jazz drumming and a father figure to three generations of jazz superstars. His Jazz Messengers first appeared on the scene in 1954, and the alumni is a who's who of great jazz names including Lee Morgan, Donald Byrd, Johnny Griffin, Wayne Shorter, Keith Jarrett, and many more. Here, Wynton Marsalis makes his debut appearance as Blakey's trumpeter. From the first distinctive Blakey drum roll, the Messengers deliver a sizzling hard bop concert, playing Little Man, New York, Webb City and an extended version of Kurt Weill's My Ship, which features Wynton as trumpet soloist. This volume highlights the special talents of drummer Art Blakey, who performed with the Jazz Messengers from the 1940s through the 1990s. Blakey's desire to always work with the most talented younger musicians brought him into contact with Wynton Marsalis. Both Wynton Marsalis and Branford Marsalis join Blakey for several songs. Wynton Marsalis also performs a solo trumpet rendition of Kurt Weill's song My Ship.

What Are NTSC and PAL?What are NTSC and PAL?- NTSC (National Television Standards Committee) is a standard used in North America and Japan. It has the ability to display up to 525 lines of resolution on your television.
- PAL (Phase Alternating Line), a standard used almost everywhere else in the world, has the ability to display 625 lines of resolution on your television.
What DVD standard does my country use?If you're in North America, Japan, Korea, the Philippines and parts of South America, you use NTSC. Most other areas of the world use PAL. Half of Brazil uses NTSC while the other half uses PAL-M. Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay use PAL-N. The rest of the world uses mainly PAL. What Does This Mean?What this means is that if you live in a country that uses NTSC, only this format will be compatible with your player. If you live in a country that uses PAL, most likely only this format will work for you. However, there are many players that will play both formats. The best bet is to check the manual for your DVD player before making a purchase. What Is the DVD Region System?DVDs themselves are encoded for a specific region or indicated as 'all region.' On the back cover of many DVD packages, you will a find a region number (0 thru 6) placed inside an image of the Earth. This refers to which region the DVD is encoded for. The geographical regions are as follows: - REGION 0: ALL AREAS OF THE WORLD
- REGION 1: USA AND CANADA
- REGION 2: JAPAN, EUROPE, SOUTH AFRICA, AND MIDDLE EAST
- REGION 3: SOUTH KOREAN, TAIWAN, HONG KONG, AND SOUTH EAST ASIA
- REGION 4: AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, CENTRAL AMERICA, MEXICO, AND SOUTH AMERICA
- REGION 5: EASTERN EUROPE, RUSSIA, INDIA, AND AFRICA
- REGION 6: CHINA
The way this works is that DVDs encoded for regions other than Region 1 cannot be played on a region 1 DVD player. In addition, DVD players marketed for other regions cannot play region 1 DVDs. All region (region 0) DVDs may be played anywhere in the world. The region system was designed to protect copyright and film distribution rights in the sense that movie studios can dictate who can watch what and when. Please note that there are code free or Universal DVD players on the market that will play any disc from anywhere. Most Home DVD players are subject to region code restrictions, but most computer DVD players will play any DVD.
