Thank God.
Ellington and Band are the ultimate balm, a ray of light, the sound of joy,
an example of discipline, dedication, humanity, heart, soul and Spirit .
A perfect gestalt.
Night after night, year after year, decade after decade.
The fact they could swing like crazy and had a pretty good piano player is icing on that sweet cake.
