4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but slightly misleading title, May 7, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Black Brown & Beige (Audio CD)
The songs contained within these CDs are excellent examples of this stage in the career of Duke Ellington, but I think both the title and Amazon's track listing are misleading (or in the case of the musical samples, incorrect). Of the three CDs worth of music, only the first 4 tracks are from B,B,&B. There are also 4 from the "Perfume Suite", which debuted in Carnegie in 1945, on the second CD. The rest are normal Ellington fare from the period. I think this should be made clearer. An accurate track listing would do much to clear this up.
Overall, great stuff for an any Ellington fan and generally good remastering.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice, but ..., February 1, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Black Brown & Beige (Audio CD)
it can't compare with the Blanton-Webster set. It has its moments, but the bigger orchestra and more vocals make this unit a little closer to the level of other swing bands from 1945.
