I don't think it would be an exaggeration to say there is no greater live recording than this. Ella at her peak. Duke Ellington. Johnny Hodges. That band. The lucky people who were at this concert experienced total greatness. Look at Duke's face just as Ella finishes. It's like, "Even I can't believe what I just heard!"
Now this is REAL jazz, Ella and Ellington, superb band, and it simply doesn't get much better than this! Ella was really one of a kind, totally inimitable, no one came close before or after her. She truly WAS the "First Lady of Song!"
Ella I know. I get it. I hate when that happens. At any rate, she masterfully swung it backed by no one less than the likes of her good friend , Duke. The world misses the likes of Ella (and Duke) the singer, the person, the generation... just look around this place at this particular moment in time,

Ella never disappoints with her wonderful, expressive vocals. And Duke Ellington had a pretty good orchestra too.
Yeah, they weren't bad.
Looks like she's enjoying herself so much here. Love it!

Please, named this concert: years and place. I love Duke and Ella!))
One minute I feel like I'm at church then the next second at a nightclub. Either way, feeling good

Great relaxed swinging drumming by Gus Johnson. Imagine if he was Duke's regular drummer........
Who in tge hell tsught this Queen to sing thid perfectly?
Несравненная Элла Фицджеральд!!! И великий Дюк Эллингтон!!!
М-да... а сейчас так никто не играет... и не поёт...
Johnny Hodges is the greatest sax player ever! No contest!
Yes sir !!!!
Should be on everyone’s list of great alto players!
As soon as she calls out "Benny Hodges"
it sounds like he is responding with the sax "Ella Fitzgerald".
