There are so many Mobley Albums for BN from 1956-57 with similar titles "Hank", "Hank Mobley", Hank Mobley quintet, Hank Mobley sextet, that I lost the trace and I must admit though they all fine, I don´t listen very much to them, much more to the early 60´s Mobley Albums. 

But THIS ONE, from the mentioned period is my favourite, really fine that they added Milt Jackson.

Bags is great. Is Bags ever NOT great?

The only "qualm" I might have about this record is the pianist, who gets a little splashy-flashy in spots for my taste.

But hey, Bags.

I remember , I think that I remember, that Johnny O´Neal was with the Jazz Messengers for a very short time. I think I saw him with Blakey in 1983, is that possible ? I remember a nice piano Sound, nice lines and I think on the ballad Medley he had a solo spot on "summertime", but I can imagine what you mean with "splashy - flashy" especially in surroundings with Bags.....

excellent extraordinary acid deep-house track on this one. Something utterly unique.

The Glad to Be Unhappy sessions: My library used to have a subscription to a service that allowed for streaming and up to 5 downloads a week.  Between our two accounts, this was one of several box sets I downloaded.  With the new Desmond Mosaic out, I realized that I never listened to this whole set.  Although having this set means I have a healthy chunk of Desmond, the thought of hearing that much Ed Bickert is very tempting.

That one is particularly good. Jim Pugh trombonist is excellent.

I recall Jim Pugh from way back in the days of the Thad/Mel Orch.

The Rhyne is a good 'un, too.
