Ella Fitzgerald's illustrious recording career lasted more than fifty years, but her undeniable peak came nearly halfway, in the late Fifties, when she produced her best Verve songbook LPs.
This 1959 LP doesn't confine her to one composer (or arranger), so she sings Berlin, Gershwin, and Mercer- and Van Heusen and Handy- and her stunning voice reminds us again how beautiful these songs are.
In addition to the original LP's selections, two bonus tracks have been added; one previously unissued. |
