Product description

Hank Mobley's 'The Turnaround' is a seminal jazz album that showcases the tenor saxophonist's distinctive style, characterised by his straightforward and swinging approach. Originally recorded in 1963 and 1965, this remastered edition, released in 2000, presents a unique blend of Mobley's earlier and later work. The album features an impressive array of talented musicians, including Donald Byrd, Herbie Hancock, and Freddie Hubbard, who complement Mobley's soulful playing.

With a duration of 40 minutes, 'The Turnaround' is a concise yet impactful collection of six tracks, including the titular 'The Turnaround', 'East Of The Village', and 'The Good Life'. Mobley's mastery of hard bop, jazz, and bebop is evident throughout, as he navigates complex melodies and harmonies with ease. The result is an album that is both a testament to Mobley's skill as a musician and a captivating listening experience.

Released on the esteemed Blue Note Records label, 'The Turnaround' has been reissued in various formats over the years, cementing its status as a jazz classic. Hank Mobley's understated yet compelling approach to jazz has earned him a loyal following, and this album is a prime example of his enduring appeal. With its remastered sound and timeless compositions, 'The Turnaround' is an essential addition to any jazz enthusiast's collection, offering a rich and rewarding listening experience that showcases the very best of Hank Mobley's artistry.

  • Blue Note Quality Control Issues

    5 out of 5 stars
    Graafikc51October 24, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Unbelievable! I’ve got 50 year old records that are in better shape than this brand new vinyl. Doesn’t seem to impact the sound, but it’s a nightmare when you first open it! What’s going on with Quality Control at Blue Note? Apart from that, awesome selection of musicians and tracks on this album that make me want to check out more! Mobley and Hubbard are always fantastic together and with Chambers, it’s a winner!

  • Mobley's Jazz Gem

    5 out of 5 stars
    boveruMay 19, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Mobley's latest is an absolute must-have. This album features a couple of tracks that perfectly capture that signature 'Mobley vibe'—you'll instantly recognize them upon listening. A true gem for any Jazz vinyl enthusiast! It's pressed on 180g heavyweight vinyl, mastered by BG. The packaging includes the usual top-notch Blue Note Classic sleeve, with the record housed in an archival paper/polyethylene inner sleeve, and a Blue Note Classic hype sticker on the box.

  • Dull Audio, Hopeful for Upgrade

    3 out of 5 stars
    NqracesuApril 10, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Audio seems duller than other 75s. I'm optimistic they'll upgrade this one when it comes out on Classic or Tone Poet by KPG.

    Got this fresh out of the box but sadly, it's a bad copy with groove noise and scratches from being handled roughly. Proceed with care when buying.

About Hank Mobley

Hank Mobley, the "middleweight champion of the tenor saxophone," carved out a unique niche in the jazz world with his laid-back, melodic style that perfectly embodied the hard bop genre. Born in Eastman, Georgia, Mobley's smooth and soulful sound stood out amidst the more aggressive tones of his contemporaries like John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins. His compositions, such as "Soul Station" and "Dig Dis," are staples of the hard bop canon, and his extensive work with Blue Note Records from the 1950s to the 1970s solidified his status as a jazz legend. Mobley's collaborations with giants like Dizzy Gillespie, Max Roach, and Art Blakey showcased his versatility and influence, making him a pivotal figure in the development of hard bop. His distinctive tone and subtle, melodic approach continue to inspire generations of musicians, cementing his legacy as one of the most underrated yet essential figures in jazz history.
