Ella Fitzgerald Sings The Cole Porter Song Book [2 SACD]

Transcending the boundaries of jazz and pop, Ella Fitzgerald Sings The Cole Porter Songbook is a classic piece of American music. Lay witness to Ella at the peak of her vocal prowess in Analog Spark's 60th anniversary reissue, available as a 2 SACD set. Cut from the original mono tapes by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound, this is the best this album has ever sounded. Recorded in a mere three days in the winter of 1956 in Hollywood, CA, Ella Fitzgerald Sings The Cole Porter Songbook is both the debut release of the legendary Verve record label, and the first (and perhaps best) of Fitzgerald's Songbook series. Inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2000, and included in the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry, the album is an undeniably essential piece of American music.
