Newark 1953 is a 2-CD set by American jazz saxophonist Hank Mobley recorded in September 1953 but released only in 2012 via Uptown Records label.[2] This collection is billed as his earliest-known recordings.[3] However, The Max Roach Quartet featuring Hank Mobley was recorded for the Debut label in April 1953.

Background

[edit]

The tracks were recorded live at The Piccadilly Club, New Jersey, on Monday, September 28, 1953, by Newark native Ozzie Cadena, who would join Savoy a year later as a producer.[4]
