In February of 1959, Duke Ellington and Johnny Hodges decided to collaborate. The result was not a heavily arranged big band project, but a blues record. In place of an orchestra, there was a quintet, including Harry “Sweets” Edison on trumpet. An unusual feature is Ellington in the role of sideman, in essence backing Hodges (Note: there are many rumors over the tension in this session). Never the less, the ensemble weaves through a catalogue of tunes (only one Ellington piece). A subsequent LP, Side By Side was released the same year.
Personnel:
Duke Ellington – piano
Johnny Hodges – alto saxophone
Harry “Sweets” Edison – trumpet
Les Spann – guitar
Al Hall – bass (1,2 & 4)
Sam Jones – bass (3,5,6 &7)
Jo Jones – drums
