I am 39. For the last 25 years I have been listening to Luciano Pavarotti almost every day. I think for the next 25 years I will do the same with Ella Fitzgerald.
I have listened to and watched 100s and 100s of hours of Ella’s performances, and I’ve never ever heard a bad note. Not once. She’s simply astonishingly amazingly unbelievable.
What a voices, what a lady. They’ll never be another. Feel honoured that I lived long enough to see and hear the greatest lady of song has and ever will be the First Lady of song. Look at the band when Ella is singing, they love her.
SARAH VAUGHAN ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ BOTH LADY SONGBIRD ELLA FITZGERALD AND THE DIVINE SASSIE SARAH VAUGHAN LIVE AND STUDIO PERFORMANCES SOUND THE SAME. BOTH WERE INCOMPARABLE FINE SINGERS.
Oh, she could sing! Most classical singers/operatic can as well, but for them the music never really varies but for Ella it did often. I’m sure some of the performances were shake & bake - especially jazz events with large combined ensembles or encore numbers.
She also worked hard at it since her teens. I got to see/hear her live only 1x in the early 90’s I northern CA. It was sad. She was performing in a wheelchair with 1 leg amputated. I guess her family really needed her to go out & perform.
"Ella" (elle l'a !) in French means She's got it! I really think that Duke's musicians are perfect for her level and this program is just pure pleasure, music to my hears. I will be looking for the vinyl of this one. Two geniuses of music, Ella and Duke Ellington.
superb drumming by Gus Johnson (former Count Basie drummer) supporting tne one and only miss Fitzgerald. When you hear today's music...... this was a golden period.
During the applause at the very end, Jimmy Jones plays a lovely adaptation of Ellington's "Serenade to Sweden," written in tribute to the country for how they honored him on his 40th birthday during a performance tour.
It's been said many times, but there really is no one else in her class. Any young female singers who want to be great singers need so study Ella seriously.
I bought the Pablo l.p. of this concert forty years ago and it is has always been one of my favourite Ella live recordings. How incredible to see the footage after so long - I had no idea it was a 'soundtrack album' of a video. The album has a lot of other tracks of Ella with Duke and the orchestra from this concert - Lover Man, Cottontail, Something To Live For amongst them, all outstanding performances sadly not preserved in this video. Thank you for posting this - it was like a dream to watch it.
AGREED This is SOME song! Say for fans especially of this song check out a bit better fidelity but with Ella and the Duke's band just laying it down. Agree with all the enthusiastic remarks - Only regret is I really REALLY wished she had done more songs in this vein and feel. For better fidelity: BTW for better fidelity but with the Duke and same song check out : Ella at Duke's Place
Greatest vocal live concert all time Ella with Duke Ellington orchestra 1966 nun of the boobs of today will acknowledge her they cant even if they have a good voice they dont have the talent
How to people find/access this footage? I'm so grateful that we have these clips. Is there an equivalent of the Library of Congress in European countries?
No one could come closer to this loveley genius woman the best that ever she was good bless

Not a bad way to go through life!
Never will be another , loved her from when I was fifteen and now seventy seven, and love her still. God bless miss Ella.
I have listened to and watched 100s and 100s of hours of Ella’s performances, and I’ve never ever heard a bad note. Not once. She’s simply astonishingly amazingly unbelievable.
I’ve only ever heard 1 song where I ever heard ANY intonation issue & I’ve listened to 100’s of hers, too!!
E
The queen !!!!!! What a voice What a swing !
What a voices, what a lady. They’ll never be another. Feel honoured that I lived long enough to see and hear the greatest lady of song has and ever will be the First Lady of song. Look at the band when Ella is singing, they love her.
And she is singing live!! she sounds like a studio recording just PERFECTION nobody can sing like this
I totally agree.

Absolutamente!
Absolutely!
Drummer deserves as much applause!
Priceless from start to the very end! And at the end of the concert you can tell how much American musicians used to be respected In Europe.
in an Canadian interview she sad that she was respected so much more in Europe than in the USA
Oh what a singer!!! She sings with ease.
Sweet Georgia Brown gives me goose pimples ... I have no words
Simply the best. Wow
A truly golden and timeless era in American music indeed.
A lifetime dedicated to singing. I admire and respect all the skills of our Great Diva.
Ella Fitzgerald is one a twentieth centuries find the singers of all time that will never be anotherjoin
Surely, one of the most wonderful singers of all times.

The best of all, of all time, in the popular music field.

Wonderful Ella, as usual, love the drummer smiling, so enjoying it all. - fantastic
This should have a billion likes .
I was JUST thinking the same thing! I noticed it was just posted less than a year ago. Wonder how many other gems are tucked away!
It is true!
She is with us ALWAYS. Just love her.
superb drumming by Gus Johnson (former Count Basie drummer) supporting tne one and only miss Fitzgerald. When you hear today's music...... this was a golden period.
Truly as great as it gets. Beyond brilliant.
6:00 " SÓ DANÇO SAMBA "... BRAZIL!!!I am Brazilian and completely in love with the work of Ella Fitzgerald. Ella forever!
Mieszkam w Polsce i jestem Polką, ale Tę Sambę kocham, tak jak byłabym Brazylijką❤️❤️ ❤️
Ella looks so HAPPY here
She was obviously fit and well then, the illnesses that plagued her in the seventies were yet to come!
During the applause at the very end, Jimmy Jones plays a lovely adaptation of Ellington's "Serenade to Sweden," written in tribute to the country for how they honored him on his 40th birthday during a performance tour.
Вот это да....!!! Неповторимая,замеч артельная,искрометная
Thank you very much. I saw her on tv growing up, I wish I could have seen her live.
It's been said many times, but there really is no one else in her class. Any young female singers who want to be great singers need so study Ella seriously.
What a lovely 😍 star 🌟 🙏
MAGNIFICA
Ella proving my theory that Great singers reach their peak vocally at around 50 years old
barring axl rose
Bella Ella is one of the 20th Century's finest fingers there is that will never be another error
Ella Fitzgerald is the greatest singer of all time
I was very touched especially at the end with so much applause. Imagine Ella's emotion!

Love her!!! My people are genius ! So proud!!
Perfection of a genius.
Always the love, Ella.💗
Fantastica Ella! Non esistono sufficienti aggettivi per descriverla.
In the age of WAP, it seems impossible that this was once our popular music.
It's unbelievable that we've traded this for Cardi 😢
One of the BEST singers ....!!!
волшебная мисс ЭЛЛА !!!
sublime ELLA
NO Auto-Tune for this lady!!
OMG...as if it werent already mesmerizing.....wait for 16:04 IMAGINE MY FRUSTRATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Greatest vocal live concert all time Ella with Duke Ellington orchestra 1966 nun of the boobs of today will acknowledge her they cant even if they have a good voice they dont have the talent
Sinatra with Basie 1965 at the palace maybe 2nd and some there bootleg stuff from there 65 tour
How to people find/access this footage? I'm so grateful that we have these clips. Is there an equivalent of the Library of Congress in European countries?
In this case it's a TV airing that was videotaped, probably back in the early 1990s, as I was sent this by a collector around 1998 or 1999.
Gus on drums!!
😀🌱🌸💙
there is more video of this...saw a clip of her doing Cottintail....one day all footage will surface
Эллочка - наше Все! Спасибо блогеру
Tato paní je bezedný gejzír energie a nesmrtelné fantastické hudby.
(a nám kdysi tvrdili, že Vondráčková je prý zpěvačka - naprosto nesrovnatelné)
16:13❤
She is stillalive this time .?2022,,,
Who is the conducting Piano Player??And the Bassist?
Is it Live or is it Memorex?
Это прекрасно. Из-за неё хочу стать джазовой певицей
Trio members??!!
Dear The Vault, could you send me this concert in high quality, please?
There is no high quality. This is as good as it gets. It's from an X generation VHS that was passed around collectors in the 1990s.
Thank you for information. I meant if a 720p video is possible.
She has singing family too?
at least wait till she stops singing to push me ads 😔
I have no control over that, sadly. My account isn;t monetised.
Could you colorize this concert😅
I put only Barbra Streisand above her as greatest voice in American pop music history. And even Barbra couldn't do what Ella did .
Yeah I put Babs under Ella
