    I like how he makes a great solo without extreme double time, or altisimmo notes, I really does show that being simple sometimes is great!

      I like how the only way they could replicate his vibrato was mark it as a trill.
      Although it's not like Hodges COULDN'T hang with the beboppers. Check out his recording of Squatty Roo with Diz.

      @@noeldelarosa731 it's a virtuosistic solo in my opinion - I had to try to play it, but just listening and reading give me that impression. Often traditional jazz seems to be simpler and easier than it actually is. Armstrong's solo were difficult and extreme in their own way, Bechet's too and he had a great command of the instrument - to play in an effective way in a New Orleans collective is very difficult (and most musicians just play loud and all together ... ).
      Virtuosism is also in tone quality and control, not just agility and speed.
      (to be clear I'm absolutely not throwing down modern jazz, that I love and play :) )

    Jonny Hodges a total lengendary "Tone Master" with some of the best phrasing I've ever heard.

    The great Johnny Hodges had among so many other qualities, a wonderful sense of form. This fantastic transcription makes us aware of it. I wouldn't change one note of Johnny's improvisation. The transcription here is about as faultless as a transcribed solo can get! bravo!

    Another great transcription. When Hodges smears he sounds like he's laying back, but then he goes on to swing like mad. YOU GOT IT. To hear something & then see it on paper helps us to interpret Jazz phrasing in a chart, & the chords help in understanding the changes for a soloist. Thank you for your hard work.

      @@SharpElevenMusic You absolutely can! If you just search "all of me hodges great paris 1963" the first video that should appear has a picture of the record 'Duke Ellington The Great Paris Concert'. It was recorded live at the Olympia theater and it was a great concert for sure!
      It was one of the first solos I ever had to listen to and transcribe when I first started taking jazz lessons, and its always surprised me people preferred the solo that you transcribed in this video when the one I'm talking about always seemed a lot more motivated and lively. Maybe it's just for lack of exposure but man, hodges killed it that night

      Hi Carlo, thanks! Yes, you can find it here: edge-effect.media/services/arrange-notation.html
      The list is alphabetically listed with the players their last names (so look for "H" of Hodges)
      There are many other pdf's for transcriptions you can get there as well. Some have a small price, the price of a cup of coffee, which are needed during the transcribing process ;) Hope you understand.
      Have a great time playing this one!
