Review by Stacia Proefrock
From the first moment when Art Blakey comes crashing in to establish a kinetic Latin groove on the eponymous opening song, Hank Mobley's Roll Call explodes with energy. The first horn heard here is actually Freddie Hubbard's trumpet, foreshadowing the prominent role that he would have in the sound of this album. The quintet all work together flawlessly here, but Hubbard particularly shines as he plays off of Mobley's fluid riffs and carries more than a few lines himself, sounding particularly athletic and effortless on the closing track, "The Breakdown." Mobley's performance throughout the recording is stylish without being restrained, and the strength of his songwriting shines on five of the album's six songs. A warm, laid-back, sweet version of "The More I See You" is also included, with a muted Hubbard sounding very much like Miles Davis. It is a nice complement to this collection of originals, which has often been overshadowed by Mobley's other late-'50s and early-'60s work but is definitely deserving of some attention of its own.

Reseña de Stacia Proefrock
Desde el primer momento en que Art Blakey irrumpe para establecer un cinético groove latino en la canción homónima de apertura, Roll Call de Hank Mobley explota con energía. El primer cuerno que se escucha aquí es en realidad la trompeta de Freddie Hubbard, presagiando el papel prominente que tendría en el sonido de este álbum. El quinteto funciona perfectamente, pero Hubbard brilla especialmente cuando toca los fluidos riffs de Mobley y lleva él mismo más de un verso, sonando especialmente atlético y sin esfuerzo en el tema final, "The Breakdown". La interpretación de Mobley a lo largo de la grabación es elegante, pero sin ser comedida, y la fuerza de su composición brilla en cinco de las seis canciones del álbum. También se incluye una versión cálida, relajada y dulce de "The More I See You", con un Hubbard silenciado que suena muy parecido a Miles Davis. Es un buen complemento a esta colección de originales, que a menudo ha sido eclipsada por otros trabajos de Mobley de finales de los 50 y principios de los 60, pero que definitivamente merece algo de atención por sí misma.
