In a previous post some time ago, I wrote
about The Savory Collection.The custodian of these resources, Loren Schoenberg, has promised that a CD of Ellingtonian treasures is on its way. Perhaps amongst them will be this version of Honeysuckle Rose with Django Reinhardt which I discovered earlier today on Youtube. It will have to do until the real thing comes along...
For more of Django with the Ellington band, a couple of performances are included on The Great Concerts: Chicago, 1946 a recording
made, famously, by John Steiner.
The performance of Ride, Red, Ride is, unfortunately and inexplicably, edited on this release, however. the full version is available as a n mp3, though, here.
