Art Blakey's 1960 hard bop classic 'The Big Beat' introduced one of the greatest line-ups of The Jazz Messengers with the legendary drummer joined by trumpeter Lee Morgan, tenor saxophonist Wayne Shorter, pianist Bobby Timmons, and bassist Jymie Merritt. Three of the six tunes here were composed by Shorter including 'Lester Left Town', but the album is best-known for an unforgettable version of Timmons' enduring hit 'Dat Dere'.
