|
Ella can work nightclubs that Duke might not be able to work, because of having the big band. Where they go now is strictly a matter of their own names and talents.
Norman Granz Germany is probably the richest country in Western Europe. Yet they wouldn't take any television with Duke and Ella, their reaction being that people weren't interested in it. Norman Granz I also met, early on Ella Fitzgerald. Her songbooks are some of the most amazing bodies of work. Johnny Mathis I want to sing like Aretha Franklin. Before her I wanted the technical ability of Ella Fitzgerald. Lena Horne I would love to sing with Ella Fitzgerald. Crystal Waters I write in that space between Ella's childhood and mine. I know it all sounds a bit sinister. Carol Ann Duffy No one in the world can beat Ella Fitzgerald as a riff singer. Ethel Waters The premieres are, kind of exciting, especially to Ella, who loves limousines. Kelly Preston The three great moments of my life had to be the concerts of Ellington in 1938, Dizzy in '48, and Ella in '52. Boris Vian When Hank Jones had his night off, I would get somebody to take my place as intermission pianist and I'd play the show with Ella, so I would get a chance to play with Ray Brown and Charlie Smith as well.
