Product Details

Berlin had already witnessed Ella Fitzgerald deliver one of the most celebrated live recordings in jazz history in 1960, so the stakes were sky-high when she returned two years later. What the Sportpalast audience heard that night in 1962 stayed locked away for decades, a genuinely rare case of a major document from the golden age of live jazz simply waiting to be found.

The First Lady of Song Returns to Berlin, Home of Her Legendary Concerts. Recorded in 1962 but NEVER released, hear the most popular jazz singer of all time deliver an iconic performance at Sportpalast Berlin for the first time. This recording finds Ella and her band at the top of their game recorded in HIGH FIDELITY STEREO. With only two songs repeated from her hit record "Mack The Knife" two years earlier, this undiscovered recording stands on its own.
