If the name Jodie Christian is familiar to you, it's either because you're a Chicagoan and know of his place in the windy city jazz scene or because you have already heard him performing on other artists albums on Delmark, Argo, Verve, Atlantic or other labels.
He has recorded with an endless roster of leaders such as Sonny Stitts, Stan Getz, Chet Baker, Eddie Harris, John Klemmer, Gene Ammons, Buddy Montgomery, and Les McCann to name a few.
Jodie's first album under his own direction is presented with a sense of bewilderment that it has taken so long to record this mainstay of the Chicago jazz scene as a leader. Complete notes enclosed.
