Still Time To Buy "Peckin' Time" September 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Quite frankly, I am surprised that this disc is being reissued as an RVG title since the original CD has not yet gone out-of-print. (Isn't the self-titled "Hank Mobley," with its fabulous Francis Wolff cover photograph, a better choice to release first?) Well I assume with his Mosaic Set finally selling out, we will slowly see all of Hank's terrific 1950s Blue Note albums resurface. From this album cover, you would think "Peckin' Time" is as much Lee Morgan's album as it is Hank Mobley's. And while they were often paired together in the late 50s, this is definitely Hank's effort as he contributed four of the five compositions. Joined in this quintet by the formidable rhythm section of Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers and Charlie Persip, Hank and Lee swing in the classic style of 50s Blue Note albums. Hank would hook up again with Wynton and P.C. on the early 60s classics Soul Station, Roll Call and Workout (see my review of the latter), but this, his last recording in the 50s, is slightly below those three in overall quality. However, with only three of Mobley's nine Blue Note albums from the 50s currently available on CD stateside, this is an excellent look at the early years of an underrated jazz giant.
