Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong - Nearness Of You

[morna45]

After listening to this kind of music, it's kind of hard to justify the crap they call music now. With few exceptions, this far excels anything I could ever force myself to listen to currently. Thank you angel Ella for the velvet that is your voice, now and forever.

[lolaxbabyy]

this relaxes me beyond relief

[thereisnospoon34]

Beautifull. Which CD can i get this on? which ones would you recommend?? cheers!!

[Nocaro]

@thereisnospoon34 There are several available but I would suggest you go to amazon.com and search for "Ella and Louis" and see which one has the "Nearness Of You" on it. Not sure how many you will find.

[thereisnospoon34]

@Nocaro thanks you.

[zozo0044]

i adore it :) <3

Utter and complete six star perfection - it just does not get any better than this. Ella and Louis and Oscar Peterson, I sometimes wonder how they all felt after the last note had been played and recorded.

[TheReturnOfStephan1]

@drjazzmd Everyone in the room probably just exhaled, looked at each other, with a twinkle in their eyes, fully aware that they'd just recorded an instant classic with two of the greatest of all time.:)

[GanstaL24]

Screw drake and nicki minaj and all the modern day crap. This is legit, reminds me of why I feel love.

[independantchix]

[TheTobergill]

I love the contrast of their voices (silk and sandpaper). What i'd give to be in a smoky jazz club of the time listening to them!

More than a half century ago, Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald performed this version of Nearness of You. It has become a timeless classic. Gritty, soulful, splendid.
