Duke Ellington And His Orchestra – Ellington At Newport — available from the Mr. Hansen Records collection in Near Mint vinyl with a Near Mint sleeve.
 
A beautifully preserved copy of one of the most celebrated live jazz recordings ever released.
 
Originally recorded at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1956, Ellington At Newport is widely regarded as the album that reignited Duke Ellington's career and introduced his orchestra to a new generation of listeners.
 
The performance has become legendary, particularly for Paul Gonsalves' electrifying tenor saxophone solo during Diminuendo And Crescendo In Blue, a moment that sent the festival audience into a frenzy and became one of the defining events in live jazz history.
 
The album perfectly captures the power, elegance, and swing of the Duke Ellington Orchestra at its finest.
 
This remastered mono reissue delivers the recording with remarkable clarity while preserving the character and energy of the original performance.
 
An essential album for any serious jazz collection and a cornerstone of post-war American music.
