I believe jazz is meant to be enjoyed live, and Ella is one of those artists who is at her best in front of an audience. This concert is epic. I especially enjoyed "Lady is a Tramp" , "How High the Moon" and "Mack the Knife", she put in an extra verse on "Lady" that you don't often hear. And she quoted Charlie Parker's "Ornithology" in her scat solo on HHTM, cute (Among dozens of clever quotes, I should note). She and her band swing hard. Great recording too.
