ANALOGUE PRODUCTIONS
AP-4003 - 45rpm
2 LP set
ELLA FITZGERALD * LOUIS ARMSTRONG
* Ella & Louis *
Wenn zwei Künstler soweit sind, dass sie ein Album einfach nur noch mit ihren Vornamen betiteln müssen, dann stellen sich keine Fragen mehr. Es wird schon fast unwichtig, dass die Besetzung ansonsten noch aus Oscar Peterson am Piano, Herb Ellis an der Gitarre, Ray Brown am Bass und Buddy Rich am Schlagzeug bestand. Und da diese Aufnahme 1956 auf Band gebannt wurde, ergibt sich die womöglich wichtigste Mono-Aufnahme in der Geschichte des Jazz.
Diese Aufnahme ist ein Teil einer Serie von 25 Verve Re-Issues bei Analogue Productions. Die analogen Originalbänder werden bei Sterling Sound in New York von Senior Mastering-Ingenieur George Marino neu bearbeitet. Viele der Bänder waren seit Jahrzehnten nur noch als Kopien an andere Label gesendet worden, doch Sterling Sound arbeitet so eng mit Universal Music als Besitzerfirma des Verve Labels zusammen, dass man hier gelegentlich eine Ausnahme macht.
Titel:
1. Can't We Be Friends
2. Isn't This a Lovely Day
3. Moonlight in Vermont
4. They can't take that away from Me
5. Under a Blanket of Blue
6. Tenderly
7. A Foggy Day
8. Stars Fell on Alabama
9. Cheek to Cheek
10. The Nearness of You
11. April in Paris
The very fact that America's biggest jazz label called one of their albums quite simply "Ella And Louis" indicates that we are talking about something very special here. And surely enough has been said - 'Satchmo' and the grande dame of jazz certainly need no further introduction. In the '50s just the mere mention of their forenames was enough to light up the eyes of jazz fans. A glance at the track list reveals that tranquility rules the day: wild stomps and improvised scats will neither be sought nor missed. Of prime importance to the jazz ballad is a feeling of 'letting oneself drift' in the inspiration which gushes forth from the minds of genial American songwriters. This is no contest - for the artists all pursue a common goal with extreme sensitiveness. The background combo, made up of first-class musicians and led by Oscar Peterson, performs with great concentration and almost obtrusive unobtrusiveness. Verve's highly successful producer Norman Granz decided quite deliberately to make the recording in the studio instead of at a live session. And success has verified his judgment, for such vocal jazz knows only gentle tones - but the result is all the more intensive for that.
