Description
Side by Side is a classic late-1950s jazz collaboration featuring Duke Ellington and his longtime alto saxophone star Johnny Hodges, captured in a relaxed, conversational studio setting. Rather than big-band arrangements, this album focuses on small-group interplay, highlighting Hodges’ unmistakably silky, blues-inflected tone alongside Ellington’s elegant piano work.
Supporting musicians include members of the Ellington circle and other jazz greats, making this an essential listen for fans of melodic swing and classic Verve recordings. The album is widely regarded as one of the most intimate and enjoyable Ellington/Hodges sessions.
