Johnny Hodges - Johnny Hodges with Billy Strayhorn and the Orchestra - Analogue Productions 45rpm LP

45 RPM LP

Recorded in 1961 during the last decade of his long tenure with the Duke Ellington Orchestra, this album finds the great alto saxophonist Johnny Hodges' gifts not only intact but stronger than ever. Featuring the Ellington band with Jimmy Jones on piano and Billy Strayhorn as bandleader and arranger, it's a fascinating program of Ellington remakes given subtle new orchestrations by Strayhorn and melodious new interpretations by Hodges.
