This is a re-release of a Jazzhaus/SWR music bestseller! By Duke Ellington’s standards, this was a modern concert, exuberant in mood and at times mischievous in arrangements, which allowed some shrill coloring. And it also showed that even an ultimately traditional jazz orchestra in the rocky sixties could develop enough charisma to enthrall an audience like that in the Liederhalle. (SWR Jazzhaus)
