Mostly Blues: Piano Solos on CD

During the period of Art Hodes' career in which this session was recorded, he had broadened his repertoire to encompass a wide variety of numbers, all played in his own style. Here he focus on "mostly blues" by presenting a bang up Ellington medley, a seldom-heard Johnny Hodges number, some Louis Armstrong numbers, favorites of the 1920s, and a gorgeous rendition of "The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise."
