A Caddy for Daddy is an album by jazz saxophonist Hank Mobley recorded on December 18, 1965 and released on the Blue Note label in 1967. It features performances by Mobley with Lee Morgan, Curtis Fuller, McCoy Tyner, Bob Cranshaw and Billy Higgins.[2]
Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars stating "For this CD, which is a straight reissue of a 1965 session, Mobley is joined by trumpeter Lee Morgan, trombonist Curtis Fuller, pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Bob Cranshaw, and drummer Billy Higgins (a typically remarkable Blue Note lineup) for the infectious title cut, three other lesser-known but superior originals, plus Wayne Shorter's "Venus Di Mildew." Recommended.".[3]
