Minor Mishap is a studio album featuring American jazz trumpeterFreddie Hubbard recorded in August 1961. The session was led by trombonist Willie Wilson, who died shortly after the recording date. The album is the only known recording made by Wilson. The album was first released in 1966 exclusively in the Netherlands and in United Kingdom asGroovy! under the Fontana label, and then re-released byPrestige Records in 1970 underDuke Pearson's name asDedication! and appears on CD without alternate takes by that title as well.[2][3][4]
Scott Yanow ofAllmusic wrote a positive review, stating "This is one of Freddie Hubbard's more obscure sessions of the 1960s. Actually, it was originally led by the forgotten trombonist Willie Wilson (who died in 1963). The 23-year-old trumpeter is teamed with Wilson, baritonist Pepper Adams, and the Duke Pearson Trio (with bassist Thomas Howard and drummer Lex Humphries) for originals by Wilson, Pearson, Adams, Donald Byrd, and Tommy Flanagan in addition to two standards that feature the trombonist. This is an excellenthard bop date and well worth picking up by straight-ahead jazz fans."
