Happy Birthday to the legendary Hank Mobley—jazz saxophone maestro, king of hard bop, and a master of smooth grooves! Honestly Hank, we're pretty sure even your birthday candles swing in rhythm. With over thirty iconic recordings under your belt (or rather, sax strap), you've carried us all from one sublime note to the next.From "Soul Station" to "Roll Call," every session showed off your unmistakable talent. Blue Note Records knew true genius when they heard it—capturing that musical magic through decades. Today we salute not just another birthday milestone—but the timeless swagger and effortless coolness you brought into our lives. Keep blowing brilliant riffs up there!
