A Winning Combination.
When you combine two of the most charismatic performers in all of jazz history on one album you know that you are on to a winner. This album did not disappoint. Ella's elegant, pristine and polished vocals contrast perfectly with the coarse, thick, rough edged vocals of Louis. I have recently come across an artist called Alison Burns on myspace whose music sounds very similar to that of Ella. br / br / br /

SOMEWHAT LESS THAN THE COMPLETE ELLA LOUIS
At the risk of looking a gift horse in the mouth, I have to take issue with the title of this compilation. Seven of the 19 tracks which comprise "Ella and Louis Again" have been omitted, and only four tracks from the "Porgy And Bess" album are included, as against a total of 16. I cannot understand why someone has felt it necessary to hype a perfectly good product. For what is here is a delight, and purchasers will not be disappointed provided they accept that the contents are less than is claimed. But for that canard I would have awarded five stars.
