I' m trying to identify Track 30 on this Duke Ellington CD -

According to the track listing, it's 'Stepping Into Swing Society'. But Track 1 on this and other Ellington CDs is also called 'Stepping Into Swing Society', and it's a quite different, much slower number -

Does the first track have the same name or is it called something else?

Hmm ...

Anyone have any idea? I'm sure I've heard this track before, so someone must know it

"Harmony In Harlem"

I have it on the "Cotton Club Nights" cd and from the 40 cd set.

Thanks a lot - that's it!

. Listening to both studio and live versions, the live version 'swings' a lot more - it's a shame that the recording quality isn't good on any of them.
