Day 0019 - Ella Fitzgerald Sings the George and Ira Gershwin Song Book

Ella Fitzgerald "Ella Fitzgerald sings the Gershwin Songbook" (1959)



Yikes, a three disc 'album' (really a compilation) of Ella singing Gershwin... to be fair though, across the 3 discs (53 or so songs) it never really seems to lag. Great songs, perky jazzy arrangements and Ella's voice alternating between cooing and swinging with consummate ease. I listened through the whole lot twice without feeling the need to skip anything
