The record
Blakey on drums and Silver at the piano make for a rhythm section with real weight, and Percy Heath fills out the quartet under Davis's trumpet. Prestige coupled 'Four' with 'That Ole Devil Moon' on shellac in 1954, catalog 898 -- a 78, two sides, and a lineup worth more than the format it landed on.
