Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Poppin' was one of many sessions tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley recorded in the late '50s and early '60s but remained unreleased until the late '70s and '80s. It's hard to say why this session - which was recorded in 1957 -- sat on the shelves, since it as good as the other records he cut at the time. Leading a sextet featuring trumpeter Art Farmer, baritone saxophonist Pepper Adams, pianist Sonny Clark, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Philly Joe Jones, Mobley plays a selection of five originals and contemporary jazz songs with passion and vigor. All of the musicians turn in fine performances (Clark in particular stands out with his lithe solos and tasteful accompaniment), and the result is a winning collection of straight-ahead hard bop that ranks as another solid addition to Mobley's strong catalog.

Reseña de Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Poppin ' fue una de las muchas sesiones que el saxofonista tenor Hank Mobley grabó a finales de los 50 y principios de los 60, pero permaneció inédita hasta finales de los 70 y los 80. Es difícil decir por qué esta sesión, que se grabó en 1957, se quedó en los estantes, ya que es tan buena como los otros discos que grabó en ese momento. Al frente de un sexteto con el trompetista Art Farmer, el saxofonista barítono Pepper Adams, el pianista Sonny Clark, el bajista Paul Chambers y el baterista Philly Joe Jones, Mobley toca una selección de cinco canciones de jazz originales y contemporáneas con pasión y vigor. Todos los músicos ofrecen excelentes interpretaciones (Clark en particular se destaca con sus ágiles solos y su acompañamiento de buen gusto), y el resultado es una colección ganadora de hard bop directo que se ubica como otra adición sólida al sólido catálogo de Mobley.
