Ella Fitzgerald had the ability to personalise some of the most recognisable material from the foremost songwriters in American popular music history.
In this instance, the combination of Cole Porter's words and Fitzgerald's interpretation of them created one of the most sought after sessions in vocal history -- embraced by jazz and pop fans alike, transcending boundaries often associated with those genres.
Originally released in 1956 on the Verve label (USA), HMV (UK) such standards as "Night and Day," "I Love Paris," "What Is This Thing Called Love," "I've Got You Under My Skin," "You're the Top," and "Love for Sale" secured one of Ella Fitzgerald's crowning moments.
The success of these early Porter (and previous Gershwin) sessions brought about numerous interpretations of other songbooks throughout the next several years including those of Rodgers and Hart, Duke Ellington, Johnny Mercer, Harold Arlen, and Irving Berlin.

Clean, unmarked labels - barely a spindle trace to be seen
VINYL Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces shine like new
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Plays as-new throughout - a tiny touch of low-level surface noted on some of the quietest sections - nothing really - but I did not clean this copy so this will no doubt disappear after a clean/few spins (I prefer not to clean records unless absolutely necessary)
