Product description

Dive into the timeless elegance of jazz with the Arkadia Jazz All-Stars' "Thank You, Duke! - Our Tribute to Duke Ellington," a captivating homage to one of the genre's most celebrated composers. Released on April 30, 2021, under Arkadia Records, this 59-minute album is a masterful collection of 10 tracks, each a testament to Duke Ellington's enduring influence.

Featuring the luminous talents of Benny Golson on tenor sax, Joanne Brackeen and Billy Taylor on piano, and T.K. Blue on alto sax, the Arkadia Jazz All-Stars breathe new life into Ellington's classics. From the sultry "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" to the poignant "Come Sunday," and the hauntingly beautiful "Sophisticated Lady," each piece is a journey through the rich tapestry of jazz history.

The album opens with "Don't Get Around Much Anymore," setting the stage for a sophisticated exploration of Ellington's repertoire. Standout tracks like "In a Sentimental Mood" and "Mood Indigo" showcase the ensemble's exceptional chemistry, while "Isfahan" and "Chromatic Love Affair" offer a glimpse into the more experimental side of Ellington's genius.

"Thank You, Duke! - Our Tribute to Duke Ellington" is not just a tribute; it's a celebration of Ellington's legacy, reimagined through the lens of contemporary jazz virtuosos. Whether you're a seasoned jazz aficionado or a newcomer to the genre, this album promises an enriching and enjoyable listening experience. Immerse yourself in the soulful melodies and intricate harmonies that have defined jazz for generations.

This 2024 Deluxe Edition LP is pressed on 180g vinyl.
