Synopsis

Album Description
This double-CD set contains music by Duke Ellington, released on CD here for the first time! The music is from three radio broadcasts from 1945, designed to help sell war bonds as WWII was winding down. The quality of this music is of high Ellington standard, with a typical repertoire and exceptional solos, especially by Johnny Hodges, Lawrence Brown, Jimmy Hamilton, Ray Nance and Rex Stewart. Another highlight is Kay Davis' beautiful vocal work on "Creole Love Call."
