Description:

Uptown by Duke Ellington, released 31 August 2020, includes the following tracks: "Take The "A" Train", "Perdido" and more. This version of Uptown comes as a 1xLP. The vinyl is pressed as a opaque disc. -

Even back in the early '50s, Columbia Records took Duke Ellington seriously enough to place this album on it's prestigious Masterworks label, heretofore reserved mostly for highbrow classical music and Broadway shows. Also, this LP explodes the critical line that the early '50s was a relatively fallow period for the Duke; any of these smoking, concert length tracks will torpedo that notion. Old favorites from the Ellington hit parade are given extended treatments, with singer Betty Roche taking the A-train for a bebop-flavored ride, "The Mooche" spotlighting clarinetists Jimmy Hamilton and Russell Procope, and Ellington's boogie-woogie piano kicking off a super-charged "Perdido" for trumpeter Clark Terry. 180 gram vinyl.
