I think that’s the way Strayhorn liked it. Ellington was the frontman. This is the first time I’ve actually heard Billy’s voice. For a guy up in Duluth/Superior in 1946, I think the interviewer did a good job.
The channel with the rarest and most educative footage in the realm of Ellingtonia. *Grazie!*

Always great to hear from Billy… Thank you!
Not enough has been heard from the great Billy Strayhorn, who is keeping humbly in a background, as always, in sharp contrast to flamboyant Duke.
Always pleasure to hear Duke Ellington, speak or play, Billy sweet pea, a match made in Heaven God Bless as you Blessed us❤
Awesome! Interview was 77 years ago tomorrow!
😮 WOW... this is the first time I've ever heard my uncle, Billy Strayhorn speak.
Just the greatest x 2 😊♥️
Interviewer asks one question of Strayhorn, gets bored and goes back to the Star. Not very nice.
