They Say...
The Ellington band was in transition when these sides were cut in 1947. The big-band scene was slowly winding down after World War II, but the group had just signed with Columbia, an assurance of better distribution. But the band was also being handed some pretty weird material -- commercial fare like "Kitty," "Cowboy Rhumba" (with Woody Herman guesting on vocals), and "Antidisestablishmentarianismist." There's some great music here, but file this volume under "for completists only."
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
