Music video

The video was shot in a suburban background. The band is sitting on a doorstep on a very hot day and they watch as a kid goes to an ice cream truck. He is denied the ice cream as the price is $4 and the kid only has $1. He then turns around angrily and the rest of the neighborhood kids come over. They cause a riot and shake the truck down to get the ice cream, and the video ends with their victory.

Third Season (album)

Third Season is an album by jazz saxophonist Hank Mobley recorded on February 24, 1967 but not released on the Blue Note label until 1980 as LT 1081. It features performances by Mobley with Lee Morgan, James Spaulding, Cedar Walton, Walter Booker, Billy Higgins and Sonny Greenwich.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars stating "The music is mostly in the hard bop vein, with hints of modality and the gospel-ish piece "Give Me That Feelin'," but Greenwich's three solos are a bonus and the performances of five Mobley originals and one by Morgan are up to the usual caliber of Blue Note's releases. Pity that this one has been lost in the shuffle.".
