Exact repro reissue on vinyl.
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 was not released until 1979. Mobley, who continued to evolve into a more advanced player throughout the 1960s, fits right in with such adventurous players as altoist James Spaulding, trumpeter Lee Morgan (with whom Mobley recorded frequently), pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Reggie Workman and drummer Billy Higgins. The inclusion of Kiane Zawadi on euphonium and Howard Johnson on tuba adds a lot of color to this memorable outing.
