On April 29, 1969 Duke Ellington's 70th birthday was celebrated at the White House. He was not only awarded the Medal of Freedom by President Richard M. Nixon, but he was also the honored guest at a gala dinner party featuring a performance by a who's who of jazz all-stars. That evening's incredible performance was taped and not long after broadcast internationally on the Voice of America. However, it was never broadcast in the U.S. nor were the tapes ever made into a commercial recording.
Duke Ellington 1969: All-Star White House Tribute, is a 28-track collection of tunes featuring performances by 16 jazz greats, including Duke. The performers were pianists Dave Brubeck, Earl Hines, Hank Jones and Billy Taylor; saxophonists Paul Desmond and Gerry Mulligan; guitarist Jim Hall; trombonists Urbie Green and J.J. Johnson; trumpeters Bill Berry and Clark Terry; bassist Milt Hinton; drummer Louie Bellson; and vocalists Joe Williams and Mary Mayo.
All of the numbers performed come from the Ellington-Billy Strayhorn songbook with the exception of a three-minute piano improvisation by the maestro himself titled "Pat," dedicated to President Nixon's wife. This is the debut recording appearance of the tune. |
