Jazz at The Plaza, vol II
Beskrivning:Skivbolaget Columbia (CBS) bjöd 1958 in till ett jazz-party på Hotel Plaza i New York för att lansera bolagets många jazz-stjärnor. Här är det dags för Duke Ellingtons eminenta 50-talsband att visa upp sig. Ett par av Columbias vokala storheter, Jimmy Rushing och Billie Holiday, gästar orkestern i några nummer. Irving har skrivit baksidestexten. 14 spår.
"In 1958 Columbia Records hosted a jazz party that resulted in two records, one by the Miles Davis Sextet and the other featuring Duke Ellington's orchestra during a prime period. In addition to features for Johnny Hodges, Clark Terry and Paul Gonsalves (along with the "Jazz Festival Suite"), Ellington welcomes Count Basie's former vocalist, Jimmy Rushing, for three numbers and Billie Holiday (in okay form for this late in her life) stops by for two numbers with a small group that includes trumpeter Buck Clayton. Excellent music." (Scott Yanow, allmusic.com)
