This is a solo transcription of an all time classic, All of Me. This is the great Johnny Hodges on alto saxophone solo with Duke Ellington and his Orchestra. The solo is taken from a Youtube clip (25 Februari 2011)

I added a lot of articulation and inflections so you know exactly how to play it. Hodges plays generally very quietly for a saxophonist with here and there some very expressive moments. (I wrote in accents in some places, but note that they are relative to his kind of playing. It is not the same as the accents with for example Cannonball)

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!

Johnny Hodges is and shall always be "awesome". Wish my Buescher would make that sound!

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

1:10 that's a D he bends into, not a C

I love this recording of this solo, but I much prefer his solo on All of Me in the Great Paris Concert, it just has a lot of his overall character in it and seems more unrestrained. You should check it out if you’ve never heard it before!

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.

This just made me forget everything for a second. I watched it and didn't know what time or which day it was... or which year

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!

wwwooowww... many thanks with the transcription, it's very good that now I don't have to decide to listen to good music or learn -- i can do both at the same time!

That scoop to start the second chorus is a D, not a C, right?
