Ella Fitzgerald's idea to sing the songbooks of major writers proved smart, savvy, and artful. By the time she began to record Sings the Harold Arlen Song Book in 1960, she had sung the songbooks of Duke Ellington, Cole Porter, and Irving Berlin.
This relaxed and tastefully arranged set showcases Fitzgerald in her swinging prime.
Sings the Harold Arlen Song Book is an exquisite album, a classic in vocal jazz, and one of Fitzgerald's best recordings

VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Plays as-new throughout - a tiny touch of low-level surface noted on some of the quietest sections - nothing really - but I did not clean this copy so this will no doubt disappear after a clean/few spins (I prefer not to clean records unless absolutely necessary)

Crisp, clean, sharp and fresh
