Swing Is In The Air
Sunday September 1st, 2013 with Ralph Hopper
90 minutes of Duke Ellington from the 1950's
Probably a million hours of Ellington so I’ve decided to focus on some 1950 recordings but starting at the end with two LPs from 1959, then backing up to two California concerts from '53 and '54 and ending with the great Newport Jazz Festival concert in 1956.
