Full Details

Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Rodgers and Hart Song Book on 180g 2LP. Remastered and Transferred from Analog Tapes. Pressed at QRP and Packaged in Deluxe Gatefold Packaging.

The second of her celebrated song book albums and heralded as one of the best vocal jazz albums ever made, Ella and arranger/conductor Buddy Bregman began work on the Rodgers and Hart sessions three months after the release of her Cole Porter Song Book. Like its predecessor, it features the cream of West Coast session musicians, many of whom graced the fabulous recordings that Frank Sinatra was making around the same time in the same studio. Maynard Ferguson (trumpet), Milt Bernhart (trombone), Herb Geller, Ted Nash & Bud Shank (reeds), Barney Kessel (guitar), and Alvin Stoller (drums).

The album is full of standards that everyone knows and loves, but in Ella's hands these songs become even more special. Standouts include "There's a Small Hotel," "You Took Advantage of Me," and the perennial, "My Funny Valentine."

This Verve Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180g vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.

Musicians:
Ella Fitzgerald - Vocals
Maynard Ferguson - Trumpet
Milt Bernhart - Trombone
Herb Geller - Saxophone
Ted Nash - Reeds
Bud Shank - Reeds
Barney Kessel - Guitar
Alvin Stoller - Drums
