An extended solo of Johnny Hodge's, backed by Duke Ellington and his Orchestra. An excellent alto solo.

  • Rabbit was my boy. I play tenor, but when I play I try to be Rabbit.

  • Thank you photonsoup for posting this classic that can't be duplicated, may it last forever in these archived pages. Thanks again.

  • Only the measuring stick for all saxophone players. Baseball has Babe Ruth. Basketball has Michael Jordan. Saxophone has Johnny Hodges. What a tone. Often imitated, never duplicated. He never sold out. Always remained true to himself.

  • this is the best version ever of this song

  • I had goosebumps the whole song, but at 2:05 I thought my skin was going to jump off my body. This man is my idol.

  • Fuck.

    Can it be something better than this?

    I mean despite all this moaning on today's music, you just can't get better than this saxophone lamenting about broken heart with Duke's piano on the background...

    This is musical perfection!

  • Sensational.TY photonsoup for posting.

  • @Jazzman555 agreed, but Hodges had that smooth butter tone that was unique to no one else.

  • @johngoo343 Bird ??
