That is a wonderful album, it sold more than a quarter million copies and Paul Gonsalves performance saved Ellington, life would never be the same again after that glorious concert.

He has been on the 'platter' a few time already today.
Starting to appreciate him more now than I used to.

Listen to this a fair bit seems it was recorded about a year before he died. Some of the tracks are really good.
