Hank Mobley is criminally underrated

Follow
Tim Beau Bennett

Hank Mobley might be one of my favourite jazz saxophone players like ever. As a composer, as well as a performer, Hank Mobley was just incredible. Despite being in and around some of the most important stages of jazz Bebop, The Jazz Messengers, Hard Bop, Miles Davis, Soul Jazz and more Mobley often doesn't get his due.

I'm Tim Beau Bennett, and I'm making videos about jazz history. Sometimes I talk about jazz musicians, sometimes the songs, and sometimes about genres. I play jazz guitar, though I would call myself a keen amateur, rather than a professional. These videos are a work in progress, but there are many more to come so please subscribe and let me know what you'd like to see in the comments!
