CD Reviews

The Duke in his prime.

Peter J. Mcmurray | Wollongong NSW Australia | 12/28/2008

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This album consists of 2 CDs - live concerts in London with the full orchestra in 1963-64 and a trio at Columbia University N.Y. in 1964.

The London concerts present the full scope of what the Duke was doing with his incredible array of virtuoso side men in his prime. The trio concert features amazing sit-ins by Willie The Lion Smith and Billy Strayhorn on piano. The serious Ellington collector wont want to miss it."
