Mobley was, is and always will be my go to tenor. Easy on the ears with just enough "bite" and when he dialed things back, no one wrapped themselves around a ballad quite like Hank.

I just dug my MOSAIC box out again which I own since many years: "The Complete Blue Note Hank Mobley Fifties Sessions" which also included the "Hank" sessions. I can't remember the tunes anymore, so it's great that YOU remember the album now, Marc. I will listen the whole box again in the next days. 🙂

"Calamitous" polyrhythms? Cymbal "bashes"? I don't think so.
