Duke Ellington Octet on the sunny side of the street 

1:02 If anyone is wondering... (from left to right) Duke Ellington-Piano Gilbert Rovere-Bass Sam Woodyard-Drums Rolf Ericson-Trumpet Lawrence Brown-Trombone Johnny Hodges-Alto Saxophone Paul Gonsalves-Tenor Saxophone Harry Carney-Baritone Saxophone

Someone is missing the boat here - "Johnny Hodges" is not even mentioned in the title - With his deservedly golden reputation, I bet if it was, the views would go much higher!

I have listened to him for almost 65 years............he still gives me goosebumps

The best in the world. Duke and his orchestra!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you forever for your sound, Johnny Hodges!

The smooth one speaks so eloquently again.Johnny Hodges

Hodges is amazing. It's effortless. No more than drinking with a straw. Unbelievable!!🎷😎

une véritable splendeur cette musique !!!!!!!!

He really kills me. What a sound!

This was masterful timing. A tiny hair behind the beat. Velvet

Such a masterpiece by the Rabbit!

Best sax ever

Artists , here is the lesson about understatement . Painters, musicians, anyone. How much music is leaden with ignorance . not this.

Delightful

Grazzie Mastro Ugaccio per condividere questo gioiello dalla RAI . Eccezionale presentazione dal inmortale Duke e Jhonny Hodges. Grazie

Meraviglia🤍

やっぱりイイねえ。 さすがのジョニー節。 ムードがあって、味がある。 日本人には出せない味。 サッチモもいいけど、 こっちはレスター・ヤング的で、 それをアルトで表現してる職人だ。 秋葉原の大森栄一より Eiichi Ohmori from Akihabara Tokyo Japan

è Lilian Terry?

Hodges doesn't look happy with the balance. Out front it works but he can't hear himself. He still played great but I reckon he didn't enjoy it.

あんまりおもしろくないね

thanks
