James Moody Passes

JAMES MOODY, 85, the noted jazz saxophonist who recorded more than 50 solo albums as well as songs with the likes of Dizzy Gillespie, Quincy Jones, Lionel Hampton and B.B. King, died at San Diego Hospice last Thursday after battling pancreatic cancer for most of the past year, according to his wife, Linda McGowan Moody. Moody is best known for his 1949 hit "Moody's Mood for Love," an interpretation of the 1935 ballad "I'm in the Mood for Love." Moody was nominated for four Grammys, and received a 1998 National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Masters award and a 2007 Kennedy Center Living Jazz Legend Award. (12/13a)
