Meets Johnny Hodges (Acoustic Sounds Vinyl Series) LP

$38.98

Recorded in 1959, Gerry Mulligan Meets Johnny Hodges is heralded as one of the best of Mulligan’s recorded pairings with fellow instrumentalists. On this date, the two saxophonists are joined by a solid rhythm section of Claude Williamson (piano), Buddy Clark (bass) and Mel Lewis (drums), splitting the repertoire across three originals each from Mulligan and Hodges. The two complement the other throughout with the exception of Mulligan’s “What’s the Rush,” where the baritonist sits out altogether in favor of Hodges’ alto taking the spotlight.
 
Verve’s Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.

Excluded from sitewide sales/discounts. Limited to 4 per customer.
