About

Saxophonist Hank Mobley was at the peak of his powers in the early 1960s as he produced a staggering run of hard bop classics including Workout, an energetic outing featuring Grant Green, Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones. Mobley originals like ‘Workout’ and ‘Uh Huh’ were ideal vehicles for the musician’s inspired improvisations. This is one of the best-known Hank Mobley recordings, and for good reason. He jams on the four tunes, plus "The Best Things in Life Are Free," with an all-star quintet of young modernists - guitarist Grant Green, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Philly Joe Jones.

This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is stereo, all-analog, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes, and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
