Soul Station is an album by jazz saxophonist Hank Mobley. Along with Roll Call, the LP which followed this release, this is one of Mobley's best-known albums. Rooted in the hard bop idiom, Mobley's quartet features some of the most talented players of the era, namely, Art Blakey, Wynton Kelly, and Paul Chambers. The set is started and rounded off by two standards, "Remember" by Irving Berlin, and "If I Should Lose You" by Ralph Rainger and Leo Robin. Between these standards are four new Mobley compositions, featuring the bluesy title track and the uptempo "This I Dig of You".
