Besides being one of the best tenor saxophonistsof his time, Henry (Hank) Mobley (1930-1986) iswidely recognized as one of the great composersof the hard-bop era, with interesting chord changesand room for soloists to stretch out (this LP includesfour of his compositions). Soul Station, whichfeatures him as the only horn in a quartet formatwith an all-star rhythm section consisting of WyntonKelly at the piano, Paul Chambers at the bass, andArt Blakey at the drums, is generally considered tobe his finest recording.
