I just purchased a bulk lot of old jazz and r&b records and didn’t think twice when I saw that Ella Fitzgerald was one of the artists in the lot. The cover of the Reprise album “Ella” was very unassuming. I did assume it was just a compilation of songs from previous recordings. Until I read the label. OMG is all I could say. I put it on and I was floored. I was like why hasn’t someone written about this album before.
