The 1965 performance has a listing in the Ellington discography Ellingtonia, but no listings.

The 1969 performance would have been better without Tony Watkins, one of the least liked vocalists to ever appear with the band. At least Ellington didn't call for his dreadful "One More Time For the People," a song that would provoke Cootie Williams to storm off stage in disgust.
