Works of Duke

A fine discography which links the dates of Duke Ellington's various studio, live, official and bootleg recordings to the albums on which they appear is run by Ellington enthusiast ands scholar Brian Koller at his filmsgraded.com website.

There is the Year By Year Chronology one would expect of a discography. 

In addition, and uniquely, there is an alphabetical list of the Titles Duke Ellington recorded. Clicking the hyperlink summons all the recorded versions of that particular title with their dates.

And while for this writer, it is the compact disc which remains the definitive medium for collecting - and listening to - the Works of Duke, many location and live performances were only ever issued on vinyl. This fact and the re-emergence of microgroove as the preferred medium of the hipster generation, means the inclusion of a catalogue of Duke Ellington-Related 33RPM LPs, 33RPM EPs and 45RPM EPs is a worthy inclusion. 

In addition, a select  discography of recordings by, or featuring Ellington sidemen or Ellingtonia is also available on the chronological page.

Thank you for Brian Koller!
