The Flip (album)

The Flip is an album by jazz saxophonist Hank Mobley recorded on July 12, 1969 in Paris, France and released on the Blue Note label. It features performances by Mobley with Dizzy Reece, Slide Hampton, Vince Benedetti, Alby Cullaz and Philly Joe Jones.

Reception
The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars stating "In all, Flip is a very worthwhile side to add to the Mobley shelf. But hurry, being part of the Blue Note Connoisseur series with its fantastic sonic reproduction has its downside -- titles featured in it go out of print quickly -- even if they deserve to be continually available.".
