Feelin' Folksy is an groovy, engaging romp, enhanced by drummer Philly Joe Jones' punctuations. As Leonard Feather says in the original liner notes: "Feelin' Folksy is a minor but somehow jaunty tune that suggests a stroll along a boulevard in spring. Philly Joe's punctuations are a vital component throughout." Hank puts the horn melody in octaves for the A sections.

The audio example for this arrangement is from a sequencer. It was performed at The Jazz Standard for Hank Mobley's 70th Birthday Tribute in 2000. Guest soloists Slide Hampton, James Spaulding; John Hicks on piano, Ron Carter on bass and Winard Harper on drums.
Don Sickler: "When I re-examined this Full Score after many years, I wondered why the 2nd horn part was an Alto Sax and not a Tenor Sax. Then I remembered that I wrote this sextet arrangement and a sextet arrangement of Snappin' Out, for one of my HANK MOBLEY 70TH BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE nights. Please see the Historical Notes for Snappin' Out for more details."
