- Ella would have been 90 years old in 2007, and to celebrate, a collection of never-before-released love songs was released to honor the legend. Many of these tracks find Ella backed up by the London Symphony Orchestra, while others find her dueting with Count Basie. No matter who else appears on the track, though, Ella's stunning voice is always the main attraction.
Professional Reviews: JazzTimes (p.71) - "[T]here's no mistaking her girlish zest, harmonic acumen and remarkable gift for embellishing a phrase, a word or a mere syllable in a way that seems at once artful and effortless."
