I was never really a Duke fan. I didn't dislike his music, I just never really listened to his works. Realizing he was a huge hole in my jazz listening, I finally got around to listening to Blues in Orbit about 15 years ago and I become enamored with his works. I own a ton of his recordings now.
Excellent list!!! Masterpieces is a treat!!!
Good selection. My favourite Duke Ellington album is Meets Coleman Hawkins its amazing.
