Analogue Productions (Verve)
Mastered by George Marino at Sterling Sound from the original master tapes to vinyl and PCM. The DSD was sourced from the PCM. George listened to all of the different A/D converters he had before he chose which to use, and he felt the George Massenburg GML 20 bit A/D produced the best and most synergistic sound for the project.
There isn´t much one can say about an album whose title is Ella And Louis Again. The "again" obviously means they´ve already done one album together and beyond that, what can you say about two people like Ella and Louis? I doubt that there´s anyone today who loves music, who doesn´t know Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. The backing, with the Oscar Peterson Trio and Louis Bellson substituting for Buddy Rich, remains, as in the first album, quiet, discreet, swinging. This product is a Hybrid SACD designed to play in both CD and SACD players, as well as all SACD-compatible DVD players.
Originally released in 1957.
