It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: Hey, yer dissin' one of my faves.

"Hey, yer dissin' one of my faves." Not really. I find Mobley quite listenable and thoroughly enjoyable, as at least implied in my original post.

"...he sounds damn good on every record he played on." And to my ears, pretty much the same.

"I don't find the sameness to Mobley's recordings that you mention." It isn't the sameness of the recordings and/or the personnel, it's the sameness of his solos.

"But if you only listen to innovators you'll miss a helluva lot of really good music." Absolutely agree. That's why I have thousands of LPs and CDs by just about every jazz musician one can name and thoroughly enjoy them...including Hank Mobley.

"Only a very small percentage of musicians in any idiom really deserve the lable "innovator". Indisputable.

"Really don't know why you think there's more emphasis on Mobley reissues than other Bluenote artists." This is probably just because there seem to be so many compared to almost anyone else. I haven't actually counted them, so I could be wrong.
