ELLA FITZGERALD – MACK THE KNIFE: ELLA IN BERLIN (LP VINYL)

Ella Fitzgerald never released a live version of these Songbooks. This landmark record, discovered in the private collection of producer Norman Granz, will be the first time a live Songbook has been released from the First Lady of Song. This album is a first in a number of other respects, as well: although she performed regularly at the Bowl, this is the first full-length concert by Ella from this iconic venue to be released. Furthermore, it documents the only time Ella worked in concert with Paul Weston, the gifted arrangerconductor of her Irving Berlin Songbook album.
