The last of Mobley's Blue Note albums missing in my collection. Had an LP copy and sold it, but never got the CD. But last week I thought it was a shame I didn't have it. IMO it is one of the weakest Mobley albums - the two pop tunes fail to inspire him. Pulled it from the mailbox today after work and played it - I like those typical Moble yhard bop tunes the best, and Lamont Johnsons Maiden Voage inspired final tune - Hancock sophistication going Boogaloo.

I always considered this a great 10" lp.

Wonderful recording! And as the icing on the cake, 'See You At Per Tutti's' is the most monkish non-Monk composition I have ever heard...
