Description
This is a remarkably good condition copy of this classic album from 1956. Play tested. Really tempted to keep it, but I have found another copy which is not quite as good, but will do!
Original UK 1956 issue on burgundy His Masters Voice label with gold text and colour "Nipper".
The original inner sleeve is like new.
It has the scalloped flip-backs.
I will put record in a separate liner. Music Max record box with extra padding. Any requests let me know.
"Ella and Louis is a studio album by Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, accompanied by the Oscar Peterson Quartet, released in October 1956. Having previously collaborated in the late 1940s for the Decca label, this was the first of three albums that Fitzgerald and Armstrong were to record together for Verve Records, later followed by 1957's Ella and Louis Again and 1959's Porgy and Bess.
The album - Norman Granz, the founder of the Verve label, selected eleven ballads for Fitzgerald and Armstrong, mainly played in a slow or moderate tempo. Recording began 16 August 1956, at the new Capitol Studios in Hollywood. Though Granz produced the album, Armstrong was given final say over songs and keys."
