Don't Get Around Much Anymore / Passion Flower / Perdido / All of Me / C Jam Blues / I Got It Bad and That Ain't Good / In a Mellotone / Cambridge Blues / Brute's Roots / Bouncing with Ben / One for the Duke / Walkin' the Frog / Rabbit Pie / On the Sunny Side of the Street / Good Queen Bess / The Jeep Is Jumpin' / Things Ain't What They Used to Be / Jeep's Blues / Dooji Wooji

A highly recommend disc consisting of a great mix of music. The bulk of the disc is from an earlier disc where he is leading two different all-star bands, six tracks are from a 1960 set in San Francisco where Ben Webster lends most pleasing hand, and four tracks come from a Norman-Granz sponsored European tour from 1961. This album is sure to pack a punch for Hodges fans, from the neophyte the well-seasoned.
