1	Soul Station (1960) more music like this by Hank Mobley Often overlooked, perhaps because he wasn't a great innovator in jazz but merely a stellar performer, tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley was at the peak of his powers on Soul Station. Recorded with a superstar quartet including Art Blakey on drums, Paul Chambers on bass, and Wynton Kelly on piano, it was the first album since Mobley's 1955 debut to ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
2	Dippin' (1965) more music like this by Hank Mobley Dippin' is one of Hank Mobley's finer moments, even considering that his entire Blue Note catalog is masterful, particularly his 1960s dates that reveal the depth and dimension of his understanding of harmonic invention -- all in the name of groove and swing, of course. This date, recorded on a single day in June of 1965, netted four Mobley ... see all copies from $7.70! new only from $10.50!
3	The Turnaround! (1965) more music like this by Hank Mobley The Hank Mobley of the Turnaround album was a markedly different one from a few years earlier. This session issued in early 1965 was the product of two different sessions. The first was in March of 1963, immediately after Mobley left the Miles Davis band. Those recordings produced "East of the Village," possibly the greatest example of Mobley's ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
4	Music for Lovers (2006) more music like this by Hank Mobley These nine ballads were recorded by Hank Mobley between 1955 and 1967. Apart from being a genuinely wonderful set of romantic tunes, Music for Lovers showcases a different side of the great hard bop tenor's playing. Mobley's approach to ballads was reverent, but it was loose, too. Mobley brought a big helping of soul to his readings of standards ... see all copies from $11.56! new only from $12.20!
5	Messages (1956) more music like this by Hank Mobley With the exception of Hank Mobley's original "Alternating Current," which was left out due to lack of space, this single CD has all of the music from the two Prestige LPs Mobley's Message and Hank Mobley's Second Message; a two-LP set from 1976 which had the same Messages title and catalog number, but also the complete program, is actually the ... see all copies from $11.16! new only from $11.16!
6	Reach Out (1968) more music like this by Hank Mobley The opening selection on this CD ("Reach Out, I'll Be There") is surprisingly commercial, with George Benson's guitar in the lead, not sounding at all like a Hank Mobley Blue Note record. A somewhat insipid version of "Goin' Out of My Head" is a disappointment too. The other four numbers (three of which are Mobley originals) on this 1997 reissue ... see all copies from $11.04! new only from $11.13!
7	Peckin' Time (1958) more music like this by Hank Mobley Tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley, who throughout his career was overshadowed by more influential tenors such as Sonny Rollins and John Coltrane, was himself a talented and fairly original player and a fine composer; many of his originals deserve to be revived. For this Blue Note session, which in its CD reissue includes three alternate takes, Mobley, ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
8	Hi Voltage (1967) more music like this by Hank Mobley This 1967 date by tenor saxophone great Hank Mobley was a high watermark for the Blue Note label during that exceptional year. Mobley wrote all six tunes here, and they offer the breadth and depth of his mature compositional method. All but one of his collaborators on this project were label veterans -- Jackie McLean, Blue Mitchell, Billy Higgins, ... see all copies from $11.64! new only from $11.88!
9	Roll Call (1960) more music like this by Hank Mobley From the first moment when Art Blakey comes crashing in to establish a kinetic Latin groove on the eponymous opening song, Hank Mobley's Roll Call explodes with energy. The first horn heard here is actually Freddie Hubbard's trumpet, foreshadowing the prominent role that he would have in the sound of this album. The quintet all work together ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
10	Another Workout (1961) more music like this by Hank Mobley This LP has material from 1961 that for no real reason went unreleased until 1985. One song, "Three Coins in a Fountain," is from the same session that resulted in tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley's famous Workout session with guitarist Grant Green, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Philly Joe Jones. The other five numbers -- ... see all copies from $11.88! new only from $11.88!
11	A Caddy for Daddy (1965) more music like this by Hank Mobley Hank Mobley was a perfect artist for Blue Note in the 1960s. A distinctive but not dominant soloist, Mobley was also a very talented writer whose compositions avoided the predictable yet could often be quite melodic and soulful; his tricky originals consistently inspired the young all-stars in Blue Note's stable. For this CD, which is a straight ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
12	No Room for Squares (1963) more music like this by Hank Mobley Why any critic would think that Hank Mobley was at the end of his creative spark in 1963 -- a commonly if stupidly held view among the eggheads who do this for a living -- is ridiculous, as this fine session proves. By 1963, Mobley had undergone a transformation of tone. Replacing the scintillating airiness of his late-'50s sides was a harder, ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
13	Workout (1961) more music like this by Hank Mobley This is one of the best-known Hank Mobley recordings, and for good reason. Although none of his four originals ("Workout," "Uh Huh," "Smokin'," "Greasin' Easy") caught on, the fine saxophonist is in top form. He jams on the four tunes, plus "The Best Things in Life Are Free," with an all-star quintet of young modernists -- guitarist Grant Green, ... see all copies from $11.64! new only from $11.64!
14	Straight No Filter (1963) more music like this by Hank Mobley Straight No Filter finds tenor Hank Mobley in several settings from the mid-'60s, each of them excellent. The overall roster is quite impressive, starting with the first set which features trumpeter Lee Morgan, pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Bob Cranshaw, and drummer Billy Higgins. The upbeat title cut is given a loose, post-bop feel by Tyner's ... see all copies from $12.95! new only from $12.95!
15	Introducing Lee Morgan (1956) more music like this by Lee Morgan with the Hank Mobley Quintet Originally a Hank Mobley session, this is one of trumpeter Lee Morgan's earliest recordings. At the time Morgan (who was just 18) was very much under the musical influence of Clifford Brown although a bit of his own personality was starting to shine through. With the fine tenor of Mobley, pianist Hank Jones, bassist Doug Watkins and drummer Art ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $23.39!
16	Thinking of Home (1970) more music like this by Hank Mobley For what would be his final of over 20 Blue Note albums, tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley uses a sextet that also includes trumpeter Woody Shaw, the obscure guitarist Eddie Diehl, pianist Cedar Walton, bassist Mickey Bass, and drummer Leroy Williams for a typically challenging set of advanced hard bop music. For the first and only time in his career, ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
17	Hank Mobley and His All Stars (1957) more music like this by Hank Mobley This CD is a straight reissue of a Hank Mobley LP that features the "Who's Who" of late-'50s hard bop: the tenor-leader, vibraphonist Milt Jackson, pianist Horace Silver, bassist Doug Watkins and drummer Art Blakey. The quintet performs five Mobley compositions (best is the lyrical "Mobley's Musings"), songs that are generally more interesting for ... see all copies from $11.50! new only from $35.68!
18 view cover	A Slice of the Top (1966) more music like this by Hank Mobley This is one of tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley's more intriguing sessions, for the talented composer had an opportunity to have four of his originals, plus the standard "There's a Lull in My Life," performed by an octet in the cool-toned style of Miles Davis's "Birth of the Cool" nonet, arranged by Duke Pearson. Although recorded in 1966, this date ... see all copies from $15.00!
19 view cover	Third Season (1967) more music like this by Hank Mobley Tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley recorded frequently for Blue Note in the 1960s (six albums from 1967-1970) and, although overshadowed by the flashier and more avant-garde players, Mobley's output was consistently rewarding. For this overlooked session, which was not issued until 1980 and then finally reissued on CD in 1988, a regular contingent of ... see all copies from $15.00!
20 view cover	Jazz Latino: The Hottest Latin Jazz (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $14.26!
21 view cover	The Blue Note Years, Vol. 3: Organ & Soul 1956-1967 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists This two CD collection was originally released as part of Blue Note's 60th Anniversary boxed set. Jimmy Smith, who was signed by Alfred Lion after he saw just one of Smith's shows, sets the pace for this chronicle of the organ fever of soul jazz. Other great organists featured include John Patton, Larry Young, and Freddie Roach. Aggressive and ... see all copies from $12.00!
22 view cover	Blue 'N' Groovy, Vol. 2: Mostly Modal (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Blue Note Records hit its creative peak in the late '60s, a time when jazz was being flooded with influences from across the musical spectrum and around the world. Blue 'n Groovy 2 captured the crackling energy of this time, and shows the funk, soul, and Latin infused grooves of artists like the Jazz Messangers, McCoy Tyner, Lee Morgan, and Art ... see all copies from $16.39! new only from $16.39!
23 view cover	Tenor Conclave (1956) more music like this by Hank Mobley/Al Cohn/John Coltrane/Zoot Sims These four sides should not be hard to locate, as the primary participants in this November 30, 1956, session have all issued them within their individual catalogs. However Tenor Conclave was first released as credited to the "leaderless" Prestige All-Stars -- consisting of tenor saxophonists John Coltrane, Hank Mobley, Al Cohn, and Zoot Sims. ... see all copies from $13.03! new only from $13.03!
24 view cover	The Jazz Message of Hank Mobley, Vol. 2 (1956) more music like this by Hank Mobley Impressive lineups, both in the front line and the rhythm section, fuel the two 1956 sessions on this Savoy reissue. The players are committed, the writing is good, and the performances reward repeated listening. The result is a worthwhile precursor to the industry-standard hard bop Mobley would later record for Blue Note.Lee Morgan, then 18, ... see all copies from $11.44! new only from $11.44!
25	Hank Mobley (1957) more music like this by Hank Mobley see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
