Ira Gershwin, the lyric-writing half of America's favorite songwriting team, once said, "I never knew how good our songs were till I heard Ella sing them." And when sweet-voiced Ella Fitzgerald pairs up with swingin' Louis Armstrong - the Gershwin pearls shine even brighter. Our Love Is Here to Stay is a chance to hear Ella and Louis swing with both small groups (including Oscar Peterson's) and full orchestras, and to sample their classic jazz interpretation of the Gershwins' historic opera Porgy and Bess.
Even if you could find someone who wanted to, even if you could find some cynical, embittered individual who hated all things sentimental and old-fashioned, there would be nothingthey could do--it is virtually impossible to diminish the popularity of George and Ira Gershwin's songs in the culturalconsciousness. The tunes, no matter how overplayed, are just too good-- lyrics clever and memorisable, melodies infectious and immanently hummable. This Verve compilation of Gershwin hits as treated by the irascible Louis Armstrong and therich stylings of Ella Fitzgerald includes all the favourites.
There are selections from Ella's famous performances with the Nelson Riddle Orchestra, including "Things Are Looking Up", "'S Wonderful" and also the duo's interpretation of PORGY AND BESS with the spirited "I Got Plenty O' Nuttin", and, of course, "Summertime". The disc's finest numbers though, are the recordings with the Oscar Peterson trio. These versions of "They Can't Take That Away From Me" and "How Long Has This Been Going On" forego the swelling arrangements of the larger orchestra for the more intimate feel of the combo. Throughout, Armstrong's inimitable conversational rasp contrasts and complements Fitzgerald's studied, exacting intonation to create a wonderful dynamic that adds even greater life and longevity to these well-known tunes. |
