Recorded live at the Apollo Theatre, NYC. This set contains the only known extant recording  of Strayhorn's  complete arrangement of Chelsea Bridge by the Ellington band.  (Something I  stumbled across by misunderstanding  what Walter van de Leure wrote in his book.   He didn't know it existed either. ) Quote
alankin Posted May 18, 2017 Report Posted May 18, 2017 I didn't know that. Â I'll have to give it another listen! Quote

I also have something claiming to be "The Complete Ellington Indigoes" and a Gold hi-def version.  I first got it from the Columbia record club when it was just  released and probably have owned more versions of it than anything except KOB  (which i also received from the Columbia Record club when it was new). Quote
jazzbo Posted May 18, 2017 Report Posted May 18, 2017 I have a number of versions too. Two early pressings, one mono, one stereo. The late eighties LP and CD reissue. A gray market "Complete" cd and the Impex Records gold CD. Probably will be more in the future! I love it that much. Quote
paul secor Posted May 18, 2017 Report Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) I'm sure I don't have perfect pitch, but does it sound to anyone else as if, at times, Ms. Ross sings a little flat on this recording? If so, could it have something to do with the fact that there's no piano on the date and that some singers need a chordal instrument backing them? Or am I just hearing things wrong?
