I grew up listening to his Carnegie Hall Concert vinyl, as my parents had it, for some strange reason, because they were not jazz aficionados! So Gene Krupa going berserk in "Sing, Sing, Sing" is really one of my childhood memories. The lasting benefit, though, that the album bestowed on me is the first glimpse of a lifelong appreciation of the talents of the incomparable Johnny Hodges, mainstay and primary soloist of the Duke Ellington Band.
