Hank Mobley: Hank Mobley
by Greg Simmons
During the 1950s and '60s Hank Mobley was an especially prolific musician. In addition to many dates as a sideman, his string of 26 or so records under his own name for Blue Note certainly makes him the one of, if not the label's productivity champion.

Disco visionario per scrittura, suono, ricerca sulle possibilità dello strumento vocale ...
