Hodges was perhaps the most important soloist and sideman in Duke Ellington's orchestra from 1928 up to Hodges' death in 1970. The self-taught player made many solo forays during his long career — one of his '50s outfits included a young John Coltrane — but history remembers Hodges for his virtuosic sidemanship, particularly his sensitive rendering of ballads.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e—\u003cbr\u003eAcoustic Sounds Series reissues from Verve\/Universal Music Enterprises\u003cbr\u003eMastered by Bernie Grundman from the original analog tapes\u003cbr\u003e180-gram LPs pressed at Quality Record Pressings!\u003cbr\u003eStoughton Printing gatefold old-style tip-on jackets\u003cbr\u003eSeries supervised by Chad Kassem CEO of Acoustic Sounds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/43tAFmiohGIyehQQdd3Fps?utm_source=generator\u0026amp;theme=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Verve Records \/ UMe\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Acoustic Sounds Series\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Repress, Stereo, 180g, Gatefold\u003cbr\u003eCountry: Worldwide\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2024 \/ Original Release: 1958\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz, Blues\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Swing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: Audiophile Jazz\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acoustic Sounds, Verve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44108196610206,"sku":"682465124569","price":70.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/AVER_512456__185352__02022024124015-5801.jpg?v=1721053694","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/johnny-hodges-blues-a-plenty-2024-acoustic-sounds-series","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
