I was so happy to discover Ella on my own in my early 20s. Listening to her puts me in a mood and transports me back to a time I never actually experienced myself. That's how magical she is.
I know people say, the one and only, and there will never be another, but honestly, I’m 77 so don’t have many years on this earth, but I have to say that if, in years to come anyone comes along the same as Lady Ella, I would love to hear it. She really has to be a “one off”. When I die, although I am not religious, if there is a heaven and I obviously hope I get there, I would bow at the fee of Miss Ella.
At its best (which I think was from roughly 1950-1961), the voice was immaculate. I don't think any other singer combined the purity of tone, agility and versatility that she did to such remarkable ends in her prime.
I love the story of how she got introduced to Chik Webb. She was just chilling by herself wearing boys shoes and eating a hot dog, and got brought into Child's dressing room by the director of the show who'd heard her sing. Can you imagine that?? I think it's so cute
She is pitch perfect. A friend of mine met her when she was a little girl. Her father played guitar for Ella, and reportedly the musicians tuned their instruments to her voice. PITCH PERFECT! AND EFFORTLESS! Thank God she didn't try to become a dancer. Not with that voice.

Everything about Ella's voice is perfection, or as close as a humanly possible to perfection.
Thank you for this beautiful documentary of such a beautiful legendary talented singer. RIP Ella Fitzgerald.
