Moanin'is a composition by Bobby Timmons, first recorded by Art Blakey's band on the 1958 album of the same title.
Moanin' has a call and response melody. One account of its creation was given by Benny Golson, the tenor saxophonist in Blakey's band: Timmons had the opening eight bars, which he often played between tunes, but formed the complete song only after Golson encouraged him to add a bridge. It is played in F minor.
