Not seven albums in one go, but at least seven albums in one year! That was the impressive record that Hank Mobley, then the leading tenor saxophonist of hard bop, could boast at the end of 1957. And even more surprising than the quantity was the unbroken high quality of these albums. "Hank" was the last album of this recording marathon. As always, the founding member of the Jazz Messengers had recorded it with some of the best hard bop musicians of the time, including three other Jazz Messengers.
