brownie Posted August 3, 2004 Report Posted August 3, 2004 I'll probably need a lot of convincing to get that one... Since it's sacred I have to confess that the Sacred Concerts are not my favorite Ellingtons Quote
JSngry Posted August 3, 2004 Report Posted August 3, 2004 The Second is my favorite, hands down. Quote
jazzbo Posted August 3, 2004 Report Posted August 3, 2004 Mine too, this is tempting, but I just ordered DTS #10 and the other Storyville "Jaywalker" so have to cool my heels a bit! Quote
