Description
DUKE ELLINGTON'S FAMOUS ORCHESTRA play the premiere version of "SOPHISTICATED LADY," which of course went on to be a perennial evergreen standard. Personally, I love listening to these "Beaujolais Nouveau" versions, before anyone knew how to play them or what to expect. "STORMY WEATHER" is on the flip, and one could say practically the same thing about it.
COOTIE WILLIAMS (trumpet), JOHNNY HODGES (alto sax), TRICKY SAM NANTON (trombone) BARNEY BIGARD (clarinet) are among the ace participants.
This original 1933 Brunswick 6600 is in sparkling E+ condition, and is a quiet West Coast laminated pressing, to boot.

These records come from my private collection, which I have been accumulating since 1967, and now am downsizing! My highest priority in these eBay auctions is to give you the best possible idea of a record’s true condition and aesthetic value. I always post at least four clear images, showing the record fore and aft, a close-up of the label, and the whole disc, warts and all. If my purple prose won’t cut it, the pictures will! Shipping is done with expert care. Your record will brave Media Mail in a stout corregated box, between four sheets of cardboard and a couple of “packers.” I hope you are amused by these descriptions, and by the quality of service being offered.
