In Reply to: Favorite Ella small group recordings? posted by jimbill on June 7, 2017 at 15:52:29:
She made solo recordings with just Paul Smith or Ellis Larkins on piano
which are simply wonderful. Her recordings with only Joe Pass on guitar
might be even better, it that's possible. And her "Clap Hands Here
Comes Charlie" album, with a more conventional small group, is also
very very nice. All highly recommended. She had impeccable musical
taste.
