Ella Fitzgerald.

 This Ella L/P is an American release recorded after most of the song books with a good solid big band sound...not many strings so it has a good Jazz and Swing feel to it...All brilliant tracks favourite one is "You Can Depend On Me"

P.S. This L/P of Ella's is one of the best of her "Studio" Recording's...The "Big Band" sound arranged and conducted by "Bill Doggett" captures the essence of her "Jazz At The Philharmonic" days and as the sleeve notes says "Ella Is Having the time of her life" and I agree it's definitely "Ella In Concert Mode" !!!......Love the cover photo!!!

  1. Thanks for this interesting album, very much appreciated as Bill Dogget does not belong to the well known musicians to me, but exactly this makes the charme of this production, my favorite song: "Laughin' On The Outside".
