5.0 out of 5 stars A great concert!, January 24, 2006

By	Matthew G. Sherwin (last seen screaming at Amazon customer service) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

This showcases how even in her later years Ella was a master of jazz, improvisation and communication through musical jazz. I wish the DVD were longer; but the quality of Ella's work is worth the price. The Tommy Flanagan Trio does an excellent job of accompanying Ella as they always did. I would recommend this DVD for Ella fans and for fans of jazz in general.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ella is on Fire , February 24, 2006

By	Jerome J. Unglaub (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is Ella at her later best, If you never saw Ella live during the 70's and 80's here is your chance! Albeit short it is very good, Ella's later years I think she was more creative especially with her scatting. I highly recommend, it's probably less money than price of the original ticket for the performance, Everlasting Ella Fitzgerald. Jerry in Seattle

By	G. Carter "gcmusiclover" (Temple Hills, maryland United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Here's another treasure of Ella's! I highly recommend this DVD, Ella again displaying her gifts, a nice mixture of swing\jazz, ballads and two current songs of 70's and some amazing scatting!!!
