About This Song
About "Hurry Home" by Dizzy Gillespie
Gillespie's 'Hurry Home' is a tender ballad from 'Dizzy's Big 4,' his muted trumpet weeping over a sparse, empathetic rhythm section. The melody yearns with restless urgency, each phrase a step toward a distant doorstep. It's jazz as a letter unsent, full of longing.
