Dippin' LP

Dippin' was cut June 18, 1965 at Rudy Van Gelder's studio, with Lee Morgan back for another stretch of Blue Note dates on trumpet and Billy Higgins on drums. The six tracks swing between boogaloo, bossa nova, and bop, mixing Mobley's own writing with covers like "Recado Bossa Nova" and "I See Your Face Before Me." AllMusic's Thom Jurek called it one of Mobley's finer outings as both player and bandleader. This Tone Poet pressing runs 180 grams, cut from the original analog masters.
