Ella Fitzgerald's SONGBOOK albums from the mid-'50s are among the most famous records in jazz history, and although sherecorded albums dedicated to a number of fine songwriters, from Cole Porter to Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, it's her tribute to Duke Ellington and his musical partner Billy Strayhorn that's the pinnacle. Backed by the Duke Ellington Orchestra--then at the peak of its powers--and produced by thelegendary Norman Granz, Fitzgerald recorded two full volumes of Ellington-Strayhorn compositions, from early standards like "Take the 'A' Train" to the brand-new "The E and D Blues". Many of Fitzgerald's renditions of these tunes are simply definitive. Though this 70-minute compilation is a generous sampler especially suited for neophytes, more zealous fans--either of Ellington or of Fitzgerald--will only be happy with the complete works.
From her earliest performances in the 1930s, Ella Fitzgerald was both lauded and chided for her "little girl innocence" - and even in the late Fifties her youthful vocal brightness was undimmed. The ingenue, however, was being regarded increasingly as grown-up - so in 1956 impresario Norman Granz created the songbook context for Fitzgerald to meet a greater challenge. A collabotration with Duke Ellington was inevitable, after overcoming some contractual difficulties, and the result was, even by exalted songbook standards, beyond category. Here are seventeen Fitzgerald gems (culled from the original five-LP cache of thirty-eight) - the best of the Ellington songbook. Featuring the roaring Ellington orchestra primed to pump, singing small groups sans Ellington (but with Oscar Peterson, Stuff Smith, and Ben Webster), and delicate duets with Barney Kessel. With numerous comments in the liner notes from surviving Ellingtonians. |
