Description
|
|
|
|
(2008 Grammy Nominee for Best Arrangement)Recorded in the latter part of Ella’s fabled career, these ten never-before-released love songs from the 1970s were recorded with some of her greatest collaborators, including Count Basie and his orchestra, André Previn and the London Symphony, and guitarist Joe Pass. The First Lady of Song’s miraculous voice exhibits its unique luster, and her all-encompassing artistry is everywhere apparent on “Please Don’t Talk About Me When I’m Gone,” “Cry Me a River” (originally written for her to sing in Pete Kelly’s Blues), “You Turned the Tables on Me,” “I’ve Got the World on a String,” “Witchcraft,” “My Old Flame,” “The One I Love (Belongs to Somebody Else),” “Take Love Easy,” “Our Love Is Here to Stay,” and “Some Other Spring.”
