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!"

It doesn't get any better than this--ever!

Ella never disappoints with her wonderful, expressive vocals. And Duke Ellington had a pretty good orchestra too.
