Con-Soul & Sax

Con-Soul & Sax is an album by American jazz saxophonist Johnny Hodges and organist Wild Bill Davis featuring performances recorded in 1965 and released on the RCA Victor label.[1] The title is a play on words based on the term "console organ", which is a term for an organ having at least two 61-note manuals and a 25-note radiating pedal clavier. Both the Hammond B-3 and C-3, which Davis played most commonly, are console organs.
