Description: A 43-year-old Ella rolls through her typical routine in feisty fashion on this 1960 recording, which documents the opening show of her European tour. There's the Satchmo impersonation (a joyous "Mack the Knife"), the lengthy scat showcase ("How High the Moon," on which she quotes Charlie Parker's "Ornithology"), and a bevy of Gershwin and Porter tunes. Supported by pianist Paul Smith's quartet (with the elegant Jim Hall on guitar), Ella's voice sounds earthier than usual and her phrasing is as appealing as ever. She's sublimely tender on "Misty" and wonderfully sultry on "Too Darn Hot." The CD reissue includes two unreleased tracks from the Berlin concert plus two 1956 gems (including a stylish "Love for Sale") that were mistakenly pressed on this release. Upon its initial release, the album picked up two Grammies and peaked at number 11 on the Billboard Pop chart; its acclaim was well deserved. --Marc Greilsamer

Reviews:

"Too Darn Hot!"

...and that's exactly what this CD is!



There's really no other words that I can use to describe! PURCHASE IT and find out for yourself! You won't be disappointed!

Excellent

I love the songs of Ella, and I've never heard in a concert alive. it is just great

Well done live jazz album

Ella is one of the greatest jazz female vocalists, and her live performance with an excellent jazz rhythm section (piano, bass, drums, guitar), is the reason you should buy this album, especially if you like jazz music.
