Hanksgiving - A Tribute to Hank Mobley - Part 1 [Mondo Jazz 136-1]

For our seasonal Hanksgiving show, this year we pay tribute to Hank Mobley, both as a saxophonist and a composer, by playing music from his albums, which are a cornerstone of the Blue Note sound and catalogue, and renditions of his music by musicians that came after him. There's so much to love in Mobley's repertoire.

Happy listening and happy Hanksgiving, so it may very well become your new favorite holiday, the jazz equivalent of Festivus for the rest of us jazz loving freaks!

The playlist features Hank Mobley, Big John Patton, Rafael Jerjen, Pat Martino, Warren Vache, Tony Coe, Alan Barnes, Toots Thielemans, Warne Marsh, Kenny Burrell, Stefon Harris, Jason Moran, Greg Osby, Mark Shim, John Zorn, George Lewis, Bill Frisell, Mostly Other People Do the Killing, Gary Bartz, Kenny Barron, Ray Drummond, Ben Riley.
