Some rare non-Ellington material from Billy Strayhorn and Johnny Hodges
-- both sessions recorded as part of a series done by producer Stanley
Dance at the end of the 50s! The feel here is a almost a bit more open
and less restrained than the usual Ellington groove -- with some
standout longer tracks, plus a number of more familiar numbers crafted
in that rich Strayhorn love of colors and tones -- all topped with
beautiful solo work by Johnny Hodges.
