Hank Mobley - Darn That Dream (1957)

This is yet another Mobley session that sat on the shelves until the late 70s, which to modern ears makes no sense considering the personnel and the playing. Both are as good as any of Mobley’s recordings released at the time.

This particular standard receives a tender treatment from everyone, especially Sonny Clark, who seems to relish the opportunity to play a ballad. It’s also the first time the fiery Pepper Adams and his baritone sax appear here.
