    I had purchased this when it first came out by in recent months I couldn’t find it so I re purchased it so that I could hear Ella’s fabulous voice take on the songs of Cole Porter. If you love the American Songbook you will enjoy this double CD set

    5.0 out of 5 stars nobody can sing these sons like Ella can
    Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2017

    nobody can sing these sons like Ella can. I've heard a lot of her singing, a lot of her songs, but this album is the best by far. Her voice is like pure velvet and she sings in tune and on pitch so perfectly it's as if you've never really heard any of these songs before...and will never want to hear them by anyone else ever again. If you love Ella, if you love Porter's songs (so incredibly clever and witty and intelligent and charming...and , and, and...), then this album is for you. I've bought it 4 times; once in New York, back in the early 60's, one in Los Angeles, later, once again when it came out on CD, and then again on CD when I couldn't find the first one (I finally did). but they were all worth it. And sometimes I can just hear her singing one of them (like "Miss Otis Regrets") in my head when I'm out and about. This is what a voice can do. This what only Ella's voice can do.

    me encanta Cole Porter, y me encanta Ella FitzGerald, después de oírle a Ella cantando es difícil escuchar a otros sin pensar en ella y su forma de interpretar estas canciones maravillosas

    es un regalo que suelo hacer por lo mismo
