Jazz ‘Round Midnight: Ella Fitzgerald Customer Review: The Best of Ella
If you like Ella and/or vocal jazz, this is a must-have. Her phrasing is impeccable. I keep reading reviews about Decca this and sound quality that…blah, blah, blah. The bottom line is whether of not you like the collection of songs and if the artist speaks to you. This CD is beautiful— no artist can capture the essence of a song like Ms. Fitzgerald. If you want a good, mellow jazz CD by one of the greats, this is a fantastic one to choose. It’s my favorite Ella and I have most of them.
Customer Review: Breathtaking!
Ella is brilliant. Every phrase that she sings is golden…perfectly shaped and overflowing with love. There have been many excellent singers after her, but to me, no one touches my soul so directly.
I cried my eyes out while listening to “With A Song In My Heart” because of the tenderness and warmth that Ella communicates. Not only is her voice indescribably beautiful, her technique flawless and her imagination endless, her SOUL is IMMENSE.
