Release date: 11-08-2010 (reissue from 1973)
2010 UK limited edition audiophile issue of the 1973, 17-track LP pressed on 180gm vinyl - Remastered by Ray Staff at Air Mastering! This is a wonderful live album. Recorded toward the end of Ella's career, by concert's end it is apparent that she has about lost her voice, but not the audience's adoration. The album showcases her in various settings: with the (obviously) reconstituted Chick Webb Orchestra, with Ellis Larkins, with Joe Pass and with Tommy Flanagan (of course); the album also has some nods to the Webb Orchestra, noteworthy for late-career blowing by "Lockjaw" Davis. - presented in sealed & stickered gatefold sleeve
