Recorded at the Van Gelder Studio on 13 January 1957 for Blue Note, for this session tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley played five of his own compositions in an all star quintet line-up featuring Milt Jackson, Horace Silver, Doug Watkins and Art Blakey. These musicians were all big men on the NY jazz scene at the time and at the very top of their game, and it certainly shows on this outstanding example of late fifties hard bop! Check out the smooth playing on "Mobley's Musings" to hear what Hank was made of!
