  • Great tune, Adelaide Hall's voice is stunning! Baffled at the title though - rather like posting photos of 1920's American and calling it 'US before Nixon'... True, but rather a lot happened between the two events!

  • that clarinet sound is unreal.

  • This recording is so incredibly ethereal. In my humble opinion, I think this is the best version of "Creole Love Call" there is!

  • Indeed. Haha, Duke was absolutely amazing, and elegant through it all, from 20 piece big band to piano trio.

  • and what else is wild is the fact that he played, composed and led his band up until the early 1970's!!!!

  • It's wild to hear Duke's sound before SWING. Truly gives perspective to how much the music transformed in just a few years.

  • What an unreal sound. Wonder if it's been sampled by any techno groups, yet.

  • it's not cuba before fidel, it's cuba before Machado

  • Thanks for posting such excellence on YouTube.

    You sure do know about good music.

    Muchas Gracias Amigo.

  • Sweet...Sexy...Timeless!
