For older fans Ella Sings Broadway will put a massive smile accross your face. Since completing 1962’s ‘Hernando’s Hideaway’, Ella Fitzgerald fulfilled their contract with Savoy Records and where under no obligation to release another album. Since Ella Fitzgerald last CD (Ella Sings Broadway) on Savoy Records back in 1962, I have felt a massive void in my life. This album is in perfect progression from Ella Fitzgerald!
Voice of Ella Fitzgerald in If I Were A Bell is honest and guitar work is subtle and poignant. Warm All Over defines beauty, yet is as unforgiving as an astringent stone. Get Ella Sings Broadway and turn on Almost Like Being In Love if you are going to sip your wine late at night. It’s such an underrated song. I Could Have Danced All Night as well as many of songs is a short story in miniature. Show Me has a fun tempo. No Other Love gives good insight into the truths. Steam Heat is a strong cut, one of many. This song is like perfectly aged vintage bordeaux wine not a tequila shot. Guys And Dolls rocked my world when I popped it into my car stereo. Music in Somebody Somewhere is amazing as in all tracks of Ella Sings Broadway.
