A FEW OF THE ITEMS WE WANT

HANK MOBLEY Soul Station (Incredibly rare 1960 original US 6-track deep groove mono LP on the 'West 63rd - NYC' address label, with flat edge & 'RVG' stampers & 'ear' markings in the run-outs, featuring Hank as the star of the show on tenor sax, backed with great assurance & authority by Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers & Art Blakey, pasted picture sleeve with 'West 61st' address on the back & original company catalogue inner. Please see 'more info' for condition details... BLP40

Tracklisting: 31)ÞÞTracklisting :- Remember This I Dig Of You Dig Dis Split Feelin's Soul Station If I Should Lose You Personnel :- Hank Mobley - Tenor Sax Wynton Kelly - Piano Paul Chambers - Bass Art Blakey - Drums Condition :- The Sleeve Obtained from a one previous owner collection, with all records bought from new at the time, the heavyweight pasted laminate sleeve is in beautiful shape. Clean, with rich, vivid colours & all text clearly legible, there is just chipping to the laminate at the top seam, although it barely affects the front or back panels. There is moderate foxing to the unlaminated reverse and the original price has been pencilled on. The sleeve is simply stunning, & complete with the correct [seam split] period company catalogue inner. It also retains a nice, period UK tax code sticker & even the Mecolico royalty sticker for author's rights, which were affixed during export from the US. Very, very nice indeed! The Labels This beautiful first issue copy was pressed just after "Blue Note Records" became an incorporated company & a registered trademark, hence the inclusion of 'INC' & 'R' lettering on the labels. These are the original 'Deep Groove' versions of the West 63rd Address label, twice as rare as the regular version, which is hard enough to find anyway! Both sides are clean & free from writing, stickers, excessive wear or any other blemishes that would affect the print. There is just a little light spindle wear to indicate play but nothing of any real consequence. The Vinyl The Rudy Van Gelder initials 'RVG' & the 'ear' logo are stamped and etched into the runoff area. The matrices, like the 'ear' are hand scratched. A combination of Van Gelder's sound engineering & Plastylite pressing is well & truly the 'golden age' of highest quality, Blue Note pressings. We really should be putting these in our audiophile store! The vinyl has been professionally cleaned on a Matrix machine and has come up looking sparkling. Under a bright light, there are just a few faint paper scuffs to indicate some play & enjoyment in the past. Upon play testing both sides, we can confirm this one truly does sound remarkable. There is just the lightest surface ambience in places but this is so minor & of no real consequence. If we had to grade this marvellous copy then a conservative EX- would be it, but it plays & looks so much better than that. We give this our highest recommendation. We are pleased to offer this beautiful, clean, archive copy for sale. An alltime classic 'soul jazz' release.
HANK MOBLEY Poppin' (1981 Japanese 5-track stereo LP in King Record's 'Unissued Masters' series, containing a previously unreleased session from 20/10/57 that was shelved by Blue Note at the time. Also stars Art Farmer, Pepper Adams, Sonny Clark, Paul Chambers & Philly Joe Jones, deluxe picture sleeve with Japanese insert. The cover is Excellent with minor shelf wear & the vinyl is Near Mint with few signs of play GXK-8163)

HANK MOBLEY Soul Station (2002 US issue of the classic 1959 9-track stereo LP. Features Mobley at the top of his game for Blue Note backed with great assurance & authority by Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers & Art Blakey. Comes housed in a deluxe picture sleeve replicating the original album's artwork. The sleeve shows minimal wear and the vinyl appears barely played)

Tracklisting: 1. Remember 2. This I Dig Of You 3. Dig Dis 4. Split Feelin's 5. Soul Station 6. If I Should Lose You
HANK MOBLEY Soul Station (Blue Note 85 Series 2024 limited edition 6-track stereo LP mastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearant Mastering and pressed on 180-gram Blue Vinyl to celebrate The Treasures OfBlue Note Records. Picture sleeve with original cover artwork and sleevenotes, plus blue series obi strip, factory sealed)

Tracklisting: Often overlooked, perhaps because he wasn't a great innovator in jazz but merely a stellar performer, tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley was at the peak of his powers on Soul Station. Recorded with a superstar quartet including Art Blakey on drums, Paul Chambers on bass, and Wynton Kelly on piano, it was the first album since Mobley's 1955 debut to feature him as a leader without any other accompanying horns. The clean, uncomplicated sound that resulted from that grouping helps make it the best among his albums and a peak moment during a particularly strong period in his career. Mobley has no problem running the show here, and he does it without being flashy or burying the strong work of his sidemen. The solidness of his technique means that he can handle material that is occasionally rhythmically intricate, while still maintaining the kind of easy roundness and warmth displayed by the best players of the swing era. Two carefully chosen standards, "Remember" and "If I Should Lose You," help to reinforce that impression by casting an eye back to the classic jazz era. They bookend four Mobley originals that, in contrast, reflect the best of small-group composition with their lightness and tight dynamics. Overall, this is a stellar set from one of the more underrated musicians of the bop era. Musicians: Hank Mobley, tenor saxophone Wynton Kelly, piano Paul Chambers, bass Art Blakey, drums Side A 1. Remember 2. This I Dig Of You 3. Dig Dis Side B 1. Split Feelin’s 2. Soul Station 3. If I Should Lose You
HANK MOBLEY Dippin' (90s US issue of the 1965 6-track LP also featuring Lee Morgan on Trumpet, Harold Mabern Jr on Piano, Larry Ridley on Bass & Billy Higgins on Drums, picture sleeve reproducing the original album artwork. This copy has remainedfactory sealed from new in the original shrink & is therefore still mint & unplayed!)

Tracklisting: 1. The Dip 2. Recado Bossa Nova 3. The Break Through 4. The Vamp 5. I See Your Face Before Me 6. Ballin'
