This album presents Mobley in a variety of formations with such musicians like Kenny Barron, Steve Nelson or Russell Malone. The choice of repertoire is particularly welcome, alternating known melodies like The Very Thought of You, Walkin’, Peace or My Romance with original compositions that do fit nicely in. A mellow sound with a post-bop aesthetic and superb playing, this album could be the vehicle to launch Mobley towards that well-deserved wider recognition.
