Johnny Hodges & Billy Strayhorn

JOHNNY HODGES, SOLOIST, BILLY STRAYHORN AND ORCHESTRA

Verve / Fresh Sounds Records 1962 / 2013

Notes : Both albums collected here are delightful reminders not only of Billy Strayhorn, Duke Ellington’s alter ego as composer and pianist, but also one of the most beautiful Jazz instrumental voices ever--the alto saxophone of Johnny Hodges.
