(4 out of 5 stars)
"When you think of "Class", Duke Ellington immediately comes to mind. Not only was he a legendary composer, arranger and artist, but a wonderful human being. Ellington's personality and charm was signified through his music, warmth and love was stamped on each composition he was connected with. Jazz was Ellington's claim to fame, but music was his life.This CD contains such examples - IN A SENTIMENTAL MOOD (1945) - PRETTY WOMAN (1946) - SOLITUDE (1966) - THE WONDER OF YOU (1945) each date indicates the recording period. Highly recommend you give this a listen and you too will be - Falling in Love with the music of DUKE ELLINGTON!Total Time: 53:23 on 16 Tracks/ RCA Victor - 09026 6362 2 (2000)"
