Mr. Ellington was one classy gentleman. In his opening remarks her was referring to the Congressman who represented Harlem in the 60s - the Reverend Adam Clayton Powell - one of the biggest crooks in the history of Congress (quite a distinction). But his corruption had not become public when this was filmed so Mr Ellington could still refer to him with pride.

@coremetima really? I know more about this music than you can even imagine. so what I accidentally put in both an E and an A. P.s. I don't think that having a keystroke error is going to disrespect him.

@Coremetima indeed he was!
I bet that if Duke Ellington were alive today, he and his band would still be playing, and he could probably get onto TV too...
