Pleased to present the full recording of Pat Thomas’ moving tribute to Duke Ellington on the occasion of the 120th anniversary of his birth. According to Thomas, Ellington “never stopped discovering, never played the same tune in exactly the same way twice”, and the same could be said here. The tunes are all there, but they emerge unpredictably, warped and hammered through the body of the piano in Pats own way. The second set was an hour long, with Pat rolling through ‘Rockin’ in Rhythm’, ‘Isfahan’ and ‘In a Sentimental Mood’ in a collage of heavy harmonics, serious swing and a wicked appreciation for exploration. An absolute pleasure to be in the room for this one, and tremendously happy to share the recording.

Edward Kennedy “Duke” Ellington (April 29, 1899 – May 24, 1974) was an American jazz pianist, composer, and leader of his eponymous jazz orchestra from 1923 through the rest of his life.
Born and raised in Washington, D.C., Ellington was based in New York City from the mid-1920s and gained a national profile through his orchestra’s appearances at the Cotton Club in Harlem. A master at writing miniatures for the three-minute 78 rpm recording format, Ellington wrote or collaborated on more than one thousand compositions; his extensive body of work is the largest recorded personal jazz legacy, and many of his pieces have become standards. He also recorded songs written by his bandsmen, such as Juan Tizol’s “Caravan”, which brought a Spanish tinge to big band jazz.

Monk’s first recording for the Riverside label, where producers Keepnews and Grauer “thought that Monk’s first LPs would reach a wider audience if he did not record his original music” and accordingly proposed to do an “all-Ellington album” (Robin Kelley, Thelonious Monk, 2009, page 190). Recording dates on July 21st and 27th, 1955 at Van Gelder’s Hackensack studio in New Jersey. Monk with bassist Oscar Pettiford and drummer Kenny Clarke. When Riverside reissued the album in 1958, the title was changed from “Thelonious Monk Plays the Music Of Duke Ellington” to Thelonious Monk Plays Duke Ellington” and the cover art was replaced by Henri Rousseau’s painting “Repast of the Lion.”

The Paris Swing Collective takes on the air of a Big Band and pays tribute to the music of the brilliant American pianist and arranger Duke Ellington. From his beginnings in New Orleans to his greatest hits. The Paris scene has always held a special place in the hearts of great American jazzmen such as Sydney Bechet, Benny Goodman and Josephine Baker. The Paris Swing Collective pays a vibrant tribute to the jazz of the 20s and 30s, which was shaken up by the emergence of this new music. A reference point for swing music in Paris, the Collectif has built up a solid reputation by rocking the walls of Parisian clubs such as the Caveau de la Huchette, the Bellevilloise and the Bal Blomet. The programme includes the stride of Fats Waller, the flights of Sidney Bechet and Benny Goodman, not forgetting Glenn Miller and Louis Armstrong. Freely inspired by swing, the Collectif rediscovers the freshness and artistic creativity of the Roaring Twenties, when music and celebration were one. An explosive evening of syncopation, rhythm and improvisation!
