Often referred to as the "First Lady of Song," Ella Fitzgerald and Joe Pass, a legendary jazz guitarist, have recorded four duet albums together. This album, her second, is a classic of the jazz canon and is appreciated by jazz lovers and musicians alike. Fitzgerald's performance on the 1976 album earned her the Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Album in 1977.
Fitzgerald's celebrated musicality remained extraordinary even after four decades in the spotlight, and her ability to empathize with the meaning of a text and convey it to the audience was criminally underestimated. Pass, who can bring out the subtler aspects of his own virtuosity and his overlooked strengths as an accompanist, was the perfect partner for a project that focuses on the relaxed "after-work feeling".
This 180-gram re-release from Analogue Productions was edited by Doug Sax and pressed at Quality Record Pressings.
Ella Fitzgerald, often referred to as the "First Lady of Song," and Joe Pass, a legendary jazz guitarist, collaborated on four duet albums together. This album, their second, has endured as a classic in the jazz canon, remaining highly regarded by jazz enthusiasts and musicians alike. Fitzgerald's performance on this album, released in 1976, won her the 1977 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Album.
Fitzgerald's celebrated musicianship remained exceptional after four decades in the limelight, and her ability to get inside the meaning of a lyric and convey it to an audience had been woefully underestimated. Pass, who gets to display the subtler aspects of his own virtuosity and his overlooked strengths as an accompanist, was the perfect partner for an effort where the relaxed "after hours" feeling intensified the level of communication. Duke Ellington's songbook is generously represented by four titles, "'Tis Autumn" and "Tennessee Waltz" are transformed, and there are spellbinding wordless performances of "Rain" and "One Note Samba."
