The title selection is a pure tuneful melody stewed in a bluesy shuffle penned by pianist Bobby Timmons, while tenor saxophonist Benny Golson's classy, slowed \"Along Came Betty\" and the static, militaristic \"Blues March\" will always have a home in the repertoire of every student or professional jazz band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Are You Real?\" has the most subtle of melody lines, and \"Drum Thunder Suite\" has Blakey's quick blasting tom-tom-based rudiments reigning on high as the horns sigh, leading to hard bop. \"Come Rain or Come Shine\" is the piece that commands the most attention, a highly modified, lilting arrangement where the accompanying staggered, staccato rhythms contrast the light-hearted refrains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCertainly a complete and wholly satisfying album, Moanin' ranks with the very best of Blakey and what modern jazz offered in the late '50s and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic Review by Michael G.
