Info for Sings Sweet Songs For Swingers (Remastered)

An elegant orchestral recording recorded at the height of her career (1958-59), on HighResAudio for the first time! Includes Sweet and Lovely; Let's Fall in Love; Makin' Whoopee; Gone with the Wind; My Old Flame; Lullaby of Broadway, and more.

„Recorded just before and after the period that she made the George and Ira Gershwin Songbook, Ella Fitzgerald is in fine form on this obscure LP, performing a dozen standards. Although two songs are by Harold Arlen, the composers were in most cases less prolific than the ones she saluted in her songbook series. Ella is backed by a large unidentified orchestra conducted and arranged by Frank DeVol. Swingers alternate with ballads, and as usual, Ella uplifts everything, including 'Let's Fall In Love,' 'Moonlight Serenade,' 'Gone With the Wind' and 'East of the Sun.' An enjoyable if not classic release.“ (Scott Yanow, AMG)
