Album Review

Richard Meyer [allmusic.com]

Recorded almost a year before his death this album would be Hodges last as a leader. It features an all star band that includes seven members from Ellington's band plus Ron Carter, Randy Brecker and Hank Jones. This album both swings and has some blues. It's an excellent recording and if you're a Hodges fan it's [for] you.
