Listen to the Fargo concert in whichever format works best for you.Certainly NOT an "audiophile" recording but decent sound quality none the less. Stellar band playing just another gig on just another night in just another hodunk town. The variety of tunes, from forgotten pop hits of the day to newer Ellington tunes (that are now classics) the band (one many consider his best ever) is rockin' in rhythm.
That said there is a WIDE variety of Ellington to discover and explore since his recording career spanned so many decades and he explored so many different voicings, colors and textures through his band and writing.
So, there has to be something there that will ring your bell. Or maybe not. Who knows? But give Fargo a shot.
