    I saw someone had posted that Ella earlier in this thread, Grant (was it you?) and I was inspired to go out and get it as Ella's Decca years are under-represented in my collection (just that wonderful GRP CD of Ella sings Gershwin and Songs in a Mellow Mood). What a wonderful LP. As it focusses on Ella having fun and the Jazz/scat side of her, I wasn't expecting to be moved. But when she does her Satchmo impersonation toward the end of Basin Street Blues, it's done with such warmth and obvious affection, I found myself in tears. Wonderful LP.

    I have a couple of copies of the Sinatra - the 'Alan Dell' 1984 issue (in the big 'Capitol Years' box), the new Universal 180g version (also lovely) and half of the album on an early EMI-pressed 10". Another wonderful LP and, no matter what Beatles and Beach Boys scholars might claim, THIS is where the concept album first flourished.

    Speaking of The Beatles, I'm spinning the mono White Album. Stunned by this Denon cartridge.

    It's a marvellous album, makes me smile and (embarrassingly) sing along. It makes my dad feel close as well, for all the 14 years that may have gone by.

    Yeah. I know where your at Malcolm. Yes ive probably posted that and plenty other Ella ones.. I have a few 180s of her. She is so relaxed even doing complex stuff that you cant help admiring her incredible abilities. She and Louis were great pals. Funny but i just put my denon 160 on an hr ago

    I always think the supreme Ella is the songbooks, and you could spend a lifetime listening to them and still there's things to enjoy and (re)discover, but there's so much more to her than that. 'The Intimate Ella/Let No Man Write My Epitaph' is another amazing album - as much as I love Francis Albert he never left himself that musically exposed. I need to explore the later albums she made with Joe Pass, as well.

    As I type 'Savoy Truffle' is playing from the White Album, and I'm reminded that Ella recorded a pretty funky version of that on one of her Reprise albums. I love left-field connections like that.
