Hank Mobley - Poppin'
Add another one to the "old session (in this case, 1957) on the shelf until years later (1980)" pile. And even then, it was only released in Japan until recently.
Craziness.
Well, at least it's out now—a great hard bop session with Art Farmer (trumpet), Pepper Adams (baritone), Sonny Clark (piano), Paul Chambers (bass), and Philly Joe Jones (drums).

Chet Baker, Chet, 1959 on Riverside
The labels carry a subtitle of “Ballads by Chet Baker,” and the rear cover suggests “The lyrical trumpet of Chet Baker” but most people just call it Chet. Riverside RLP 12-299 (mono) and RLP 1135 (stereo).
He’s joined here by Pepper Adams, Paul Chambers, Herbie Mann, Bill Evans, and Philly Joe Jones / Connie Kay splitting drums duty, plus Kenny Burrell on two tracks. The liner notes (by Orrin Keepnews) say “Pianist Bill Evans . . . is just beginning to attract real public attention, but has for some time been the object of extreme praise from fellow musicians.”
My copy is a 2021 reissue by Craft Recordings (CR 00359) pressed at RTI with lacquers cut by Kevin Grey – via Beatnick Records in Montreal QC – which sounds fantastic.
