HANK MOBLEY レコード& CD

Review: Hank Mobley's A Slice of the Top, recorded in 1966, is Mobley's nod to Birth of the Cool, blending hard bop with Duke Pearson's brilliant arrangements. With an expanded octet featuring unique additions like euphonium and tuba alongside a stellar lineupiJames Spaulding on alto sax, Lee Morgan on trumpet, McCoy Tyner on piano, Bob Cranshaw on bass and Billy Higgins on drumsithe album is a richly layered experience. This Tone Poet Vinyl Edition, produced by Joe Harley and mastered by Kevin Gray from original tapes, arrives on 180g vinyl in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket.
