“No Problem” (Duke Jordan).
From “Les Liaisons Dangereuses” original soundtrack, 1960.
An interesting set of music originally recorded as the soundtrack for the French film Les Liaisons Dangereuses, the majority of these tracks feature Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers of mid-1959 with trumpeter Lee Morgan, tenorman Barney Wilen, pianist Boby Timmons and bassist Jymie Merritt joining the explosive drummer/leader. In general, the music manages to stand on its own with the ensemble getting to stretch out a bit on the rare material (AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow).

I saw this film (even read the book), which was made into an American colored version starring Michelle Pfeiffer, as I recall. But I never realized this Duke Jordan song was from the original French film. The version that hit home for me was Chet Baker's (with Duke Jordan and, above all, Nils Orstad Pederson). Blakey was always the "force of nature," simply an irreplaceable drummer (the reason that revival bands of The Jazz Messengers" fall flat on their face, sounding anemic by comparison. But the supreme pleasure is to hear Blakey with Doug Watkins–the time floats and dances like Chambers with Philly Joe but with greater consistency (Paul could become inattentive on the live sessions).
Music from the heart.
Not as good as Charlie Parker's version.
Barney Wilen on tenor sax?

Powerhouse Modern Jazz – marvelous! Sadly most of today's youth wouldn't appreciate it.
もうすぐ古希。高校生のとき、僕の田舎、日立の映画館、確かセントラルでこの映画見たのを思い出す。めちゃくちゃかっこいいジャズ。ジャンヌモロー。嗚呼懐かしい。ちなみにセントラルは既になかった。
丁度高１の時、雑誌の付録についてきたソノシートに入っていたこの曲で初めてジャズの洗礼を受けました。危険な関係のブルース・・・それ以来ジャズの虜に、７０歳になってしまった、、アハハ・・・
That's the shit…..
That's Probably Lee Morgan..
Absolute killer riff!
Who plays trumpet??
