Hank Mobley - Workout

Workout is one of the best-known Hank Mobley albums. The 1961 record features an all-star quintet of young modernists: guitarist Grant Green, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Philly Joe Jones. Although none of his four originals on this record ("Workout", "Uh Huh", "Smokin'", "Greasin' Easy") caught on, the fine saxophonist is in top form.  All in all, this is yet another strong set of swinging Hard Bop from one of the genre's most consistent and prolific artists.

Heavyweight vinyl produced by Blue Note Records in 2014 for their 'Blue Note 75' campaign. Remastered by Bernie Grundman.
