Hank Mobley – Soul Station (LP, Blue Note)

Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. On February 7, 1960, tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley with pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Art Blakey, laid down what would become his masterpiece: Soul Station. The crystalline six-song set was a showcase for Mobley’s lyrical flow from the breezy opening take on Irving Berlin’s “Remember” through bluesy originals like “Dig Dis”, & the swinging up-tempo number “Split Feelin’s.” Soul Station endures as a jazz classic for the ages.
