Mosaic is a studio album by Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers recorded for Blue Note on October 2, 1961, and released the following year.[4] The sextet features horn section Wayne Shorter, Freddie Hubbard and Curtis Fuller and rhythm section Cedar Walton, Jymie Merritt and Art Blakey.
The lineup recorded and performed together from 1961 into 1964. Hubbard and Walton became permanent members of the group following the 1961 departures of trumpeter Lee Morgan and pianist Bobby Timmons.
Release history
The Mosaic recording session featured no alternate takes and, therefore, has yielded no bonus material in reissue.[citation needed]
