Mobley's Message BWOOD0337LP In both freely improvised forms

In both freely improvised forms and carefully wrought themes

London five-piece Ezra Collective release their debut album

so great is the rapport between the two men

Mobley's Message BWOOD0337LP In both freely improvised forms"Mobley is joined by trumpeter Donald Byrd. Altoist Jackie McLean is also on hand for Parker's 'Au Privave,' and the rhythm section of Barry Harris on piano, Doug Watkins on bass, and Art Taylor on drums, provides perfect support Hard bop devotees shouldn't overlook Mobley's Message, especially when they can savor this superb vinyl reissue."
