Each Time doesn't quite sound like Mobley to me. OTOH he was 20 years old then and probably didn't yet sound like his hard-bop self.

I too have come to enjoy lots of music via osmosis. As a boy in IN in the early 1950s, only two-beat music and 1920s jazz moved me. Over the years came swing and blues, then modern jazz - Parker, Ammons, Ornette Coleman, Cecil Taylor, Monk, etc. all at once. A few TV shows - The Sound Of Jazz, some of Bobby Troup's Stars Of Jazz - certainly stimulated curiosity. Miles Davis was a mystery to me back then and has intermittently been a mystery ever since.

There once was a jazz lover named Hieronymous Who was bugged at the use of the word "eponymous" He assasinated a chap named Levi who levied taxes on the levee Baffled police said the criminal was anonymous. ...getting tired...very tired...
