rating: 5 Ella Fitzgerald
This is an excellent DVD. I particularly enjoyed the first section with Ray Brown, Herb Ellis, and Jo Jones. Oscar Peterson joins in on "Lullaby Of Birdland" and "It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)" April 27, 2008

rating: 5 rare vintage video of Ella
From what I've seen and heard thus far of the Jazz Icons series, the DVD's of Ella and Sarah are superb, and are wonderful additions to the music libraries of all who are interested in the artistry and musicianship of these great singers. Not only were they loved in their own country, as witnessed by this footage, they were undoubtedly among the very best good will ambassadors America has produced. January 22, 2008

rating: 4 Ella in performance
This penultimate artist had passed away before I "discovered" her limitless, awe-inspiring vocal talent. I was delighted to have a chance to see the owner of this awesome voice in two live performances.
It was great to see the woman behind the voice. None of the songs performed are in my favorites category, and the sound is only what you can expect from something recorded ~50 years ago. November 2, 2007

rating: 5 PURE ELLA!!!
I have decided to buy all her DVD's after seeing this one. She is just the ultimate singer. She has class, style, personality, humility, an obvious joy in performing, I could go on and on.
She made me LOVE the song "Mack the knife" where it used to be one of my least favorites. July 2, 2007

rating: 5 Louis for ever
We are very fortunate to be able to see the first complete Jazz soloist at work in a good qulity DVD. It's like somebody found film on Paganini playing the violin 200-years ago but he only played the violin. Only difrenece here is that Louis was the starting point for the whole modern music era. For all instruments for all vocalists for all and for all...I'd say biginig of the American culture and art form for any style...jazz, pop,soul, rock, R&B even RAP...yes RAP..listen to some of his early vocals where he is talking the whole song...Louis did it all...!!nothing has happened since that time that did not come from him.Regardless of the time age or quality of his horn playing , this is history caprured live which will survive another 500-years if not longer.
We MUST show this DVD or play his music to every American, young or old.
America has contributed two things to the world that can not be copied.

Loius Armstrong and western movies....!!
