Hank Mobley: Another Workout
by Samuel Chell
Hank Mobley Another Workout Blue Note 2006 (1961/1985) I can scarcely remember the last time an anticipated “new" release has afforded as much immediate pleasure as this one.

But even more importantly, because this is a major event and should get all the exposure possible. In 1991, at the time ...
