[Answered] Blue Lou, Chick Webb/Ella Fitzgerald

#1 Post by swingles777 » Wed Sep 18, 2013 1:23 pm

In the comments on youtube (link below), someone says it's from Ella Fitzgerald and Chick Webb's "Complete 1940 NBC Broadcasts". While it is definitely the same arrangement, it is clearly not the same recording - the song in the video is about 10 BPM faster and the solos are different. Anyone know where to find this one?

Thanks!

I think this record is probably the most asked about on this sight. It seems like every 6 months someone is asking for a songID from this cd. Even i have inquired for a song from this record before. Once I got it, it made perfect sense. The ENTIRE album is gold. Great to have in your collection...
You're Blue LOu is on it.

I knew it! I had actually settled on buying this CD, but was just waiting to see what the replies said. Thanks for the info!
