Hank Mobley
Tenor Sax Solo on
Remember

About

Hank Mobley's tenor sax solo opens the improvised portion of this recording, followed by Wynton Kelly on piano. Spanning three choruses of the 32-bar AABA form at a medium-up 166 BPM with a swing feel in A♭, the solo runs approximately 2:23. Soul Station is widely regarded as Mobley's finest album, and this opening track establishes the session's relaxed, deeply swinging character from the first notes. "Remember" is a warm, swinging reading of Irving Berlin's standard that opens Hank Mobley's masterpiece Soul Station, recorded in 1960 for Blue Note. Hank Mobley was 29 to 30 years old at the time of this 1960 recording.
