DUKE ELLINGTON
BLUES IN ORBIT
180 GRAM VINYL LP RELEASE ALL NEW & SEALED
Ellington, Duke
Duke Ellington is seen by many as one of the frontrunners of Jazz and as one of the greatest composers of the 20th century.
He was a part of the Harlem Renaissance and many feel that because of him, Jazz gained recognition as a art form.
Many of his instrumental songs have become Jazz standards, and his distinctive style remains a shining beacon in music.
Thanks to a stellar performance at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1957 there was a renewed interest in his music and his orchestra, and they performed all over the world.
'Blues In Orbit' was mostly recorded during one after-midnight session after they had returned from a run of shows in Europe.
It presents a Big Band in full swing; there is true synergy at work here that could only come from a group of musicians that expect – and get – the best from each other.
Free flowing improvisations and straightforward arrangements show a band that is kicking back, relaxing, and doing it nice 'n' easy.
