What we have here is a bootleg - which I'm damn grateful for, as this is the ONLY 78 of "Harlem Air Shaft" I've been able to find since my 1st press Victor copy was broken in a 1996 move.
Bad dub - irresistible swingin'. ;)

The solos in this recording were by Tricky Sam Nanton, Cootie Williams and Barney Bigard, all stars in their own right. Hodges and Webster were part of the ensemble in this session, July 22, 1940 in New York, and Webster has the last solo in the third tune recorded this day, "All Too Soon."

This is Duk'e's finest up tempo riff tune I think. Interesting that Duke didn't have Webster or Hodges soloing on this one

One thing I love about Ellington is the way a track might start off sounding pretty modest and demure, but then it fleshes out and builds up layers until it really swings - a little bit sly!
