What a wonderful world - was für eine wundervolle (Musik-) Welt.

"Ihre Aufnahmen waren perfekt - kein anderes Wort wird ihnen gerecht."

Laurence Bergreen in seiner Armstrong-Biografie "Louis Armstrong - Ein extravagantes Leben" Er schrieb dabei über diese gemeinsame Session Armstrongs und Ellingtons

if you like this, you should check out the four freshmans' version of mood indigo. its fantastic.

The intro is another variation on the four ascending chords Ellington used on many recordings of MI. He liked to play them double time, kinda up-tempo, then throw the brakes on in the first bar.

And actually, the earliest recordings of MI were up-tempo, swing style, not the slow delivery we've come to associate with the tune.

why do they have to do this ridiculous piano intro? it's so inappropriate I can't even come up with a fitting simile - and I've been trying hard with sentences like "It's like adding a stick-figure to daVinci's Lady with an Ermine"

@hopethisnamesnotgive DUKE plays piano doesnt he there is a funny coincidence the guy in the moody blues that plays piano named the group after mood indigo his favorite song

When two giants are present, is there room for anybody else?

[dal4018]

@WSenator1 No way but I would have liked to heard Count Basie play with these two

[WSenator1]
