Mobley plays Rollins, Henderson

i was just perusing the setlists of my hank mobley 1968 live cds, and i wanted to ask you crazy guys why you think hank chose to cover a joe song, blue bossa, and a sonny song, airgein, when he had so many of his own songs to choose from. i mean, sonny and joe weren't covering hank songs, so why should hank cover theirs? or were they?

'Blue Bossa' is by Kenny Dorham.

Bertrand.
