| Duke Ellington - Isfahan
|
Encoded by lfbarfe!
Watching the Duke Ellington Jazz 65 show (kindly encoded by Mr lfbarfe), I was VERY taken with the performance of Isfahan, from the "Far East Suite." I've chopped it out to share on YouTube, partly so I can keep it handy. Hope you enjoy it. Johnny Hodge's playing is extraordinarily beautiful, very warm and emotive. If you like this, then check out Demonoid for the full thing. |

| Take the 'A' Train
|
The Duke Ellington Orchestra performing in Turin in 1958. One of his finest periods. Ray Nance is the stand-out soloist on trumpet. I love the way he remains seated - the very essence of'cool'. |
