DUKE ELLINGTON

AT NEWPORT

Description:
2 CD set. Duke Ellington always cited his initial engagement at the Cotton Club as "a classic example of being at the right place at the right time with the right thing before the right people." Another such example occurred at the Newport Jazz Festival on July 7, 1956 when his appearance resulted in this, his best selling album, and the transformation of his career. What Ellington demonstrated at Newport was the enduring potency of the swinging blues. Included here is "Diminuendo And Crescendo In Blue" with the 'wailing interval' of Paul Gonsalves on tenor sax. In stereo!
