Jazz
Johnny Hodges (1907-1970), known as "Jeep" or "Rabbit", raised the fine art of jazz alto saxophone-playing to an unparalleled level of beauty. His utterly distinctive sound, technique and innate jazz feeling, made his the supreme instrumental voice within the great Duke Ellington band for some 38 years. He did however lead quite a number of sessions away from Ducal confines and from 1951/5 led his own orchestra. To mark his centenary on 25th July this new compilation puts together all his best work recorded under his own leadership during the vintage period of 1941 to 1955.
The Jeep Is Jumpin' complements Jeep's Blues (Living Era CD AJA 5180 - 24 tracks 1928-1941) by taking up the Johnny Hodges story in 1941, when he made four great septet tracks with Ellington at the piano (Squatty Roo . . .), and continuing through to 1955. There are six late 40s numbers that include some of the sensuously lovely compositions written for him by Billy Strayhorn (Violet Blue . . .), and four recorded in Paris (Wishing And Waiting . . .), preceding a generous 32 winners from his own orchestra (usually a seven- or eight-piece). The Ellington influence is of course very strong. Not only is he joined by such noted Ellingtonians as Lawrence Brown and Ben Webster, he also plays several of the Duke's standards, such as Sophisticated Lady, Mood Indigo and, above all, the indescribably wonderful I Got It Bad And That Ain't Good. We assure you it is good! |
