 Re: OT - Johnny Hodges' alto sax

I had the good fortune to know Johnny Hodges well. He played a Beuscher for practically all of his career, as did Russel Procope, who actually played first alto in the Ellington orchestra most of the time because he was a far better reader. Johnny switched to a very elaborate Leblanc-Vito for the last 3 years of his life for commercial reasons; I think he always missed his old Beuscher with the octave key in the form of a snake's head.
