1955 studio album by Johnny Hodges and His Orchestra
Castle Rock is an album recorded by American jazz saxophonist Johnny Hodges featuring performances recorded in 1951 and 1952 and released on the Norgran label.[1][2]
AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars out of 5 and noted “Hodges was evidently trying to make somewhat of a break from his established sound with this recording, though the results are mixed. It’s still worth acquiring, though there are a number of better recordings available under Hodges’ name”.[3]
