It's the issue of the magazine that had the posthumous appreciation of Hank Mobley in it. Pretty good article.

I loved that Clapton-Mobley-Simon-Jarre supergroup. I played their album "Straight No Slowhand Oxygene After All These Years" all the time.

Yeah, that Jean Michel dude left pretty early though, maybe too early.
"I ain't playin' that clink-clink-clink jazz no mo'". And off he went.
I wonder what happend to him?

If I could find it, I'd be able to tell you w/100% accuracy, but I can't. The water is wide, but the mess is wider...
With a no more than 50% certainty, I'll say Chip Stern. When the thing turns up (and it will, inevitably), I'll let you know.
It was a somewhat "revealing" piece, talking briefly (but effectively) about Hank's difficulty in sustaining a relationship with women, his sense of "lostness" in his final years, and a few other things that don't get brought up in what is becoming the semi-"official" portrait.
Nothing sensationistic, mind you, just some biographical information (bolstered by quotes from Don Sickler, IIRC) that you don't usually find anywhere else.
