Overall no room for squares is a ridiculously consistent listen.
Hank mobley no room for squares review.
Me n you 3 and the title track are both some of the best mobley compositions i ve heard.
With the opening rhythm tune plus an exquisite ballad an infectious blues and a driving modal melody on the title number no room for squares is an album which despite the somewhat exclusive and limiting elitist sounding title deserves and is likely to satisfy the widest discerning audience possible.

If you like traditional blue note styled jazz and you somehow passed this one by it s well worth a listen.
And the rest of the album follows closely behind.
Such transformations are just beginning to become noticeable with no room for squares which happily is still prime time mobley despite the more aggressive edge to his sound and a few attempts to disguise the overly familiar with hopefully hip melodic harmonic choices.
