Horace Silver Trio and Art Blakey - Sabu is a 1955 compilation album, featuring, primarily the Horace Silver Trio, but also includes two percussion-centric tracks featuring drummer Art Blakey and conga player Sabu. The tracks on this album are compiled from three sessions which were Silver's first as a leader. Originally released as an LP, it has subsequently been reissued on CD several times, including additional tracks not present on the original LP.
Horace Silver Trio and Art Blakey - Sabu was the second 12" Blue Note album released under Silver's name, but was recorded earlier. The album compiles tracks from three sessions in 1953 and 1954 featuring Silver, Blakey and three different bassists: Gene Ramey, Curly Russell and Percy Heath. All of these tracks were previously released on two earlier 10" LPs – Introducing the Horace Silver Trio (BLP 5018) and Horace Silver Trio, Vol. 2 and Art Blakey - Sabu (BLP 5034). While the original 12" LP omitted four tracks from these earlier 10" LPs, the CD reissue includes all 16 tracks from the original sessions.

Horace Silver - piano (#1-3,5-9,11,12)
Curly Russell (#2,3,6), Gene Ramey (#1,5), Percy Heath (#7-9,11,12) - bass
