ELLA-GANZA.....IT DON'T MEAN A THING

The birthday celebration week continues with Ella Fitzgerald, Joe Pass and others performing this Duke Ellington's and Irving Mills' song in London, in 1974. This live date was recorded at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club in Soho. Note the fun she makes in the beginning of the song and also while singing it. Ella was and still is majestic. She sure did feel the music and have fun. I do like her best when she is doing her jazz thing.  I would have loved to she her perform in a jazz club just once.
