Ella Fitzgerald Newport Jazz Festival Live At Carnegie Hall 10/6/15 GET AWAY FROM IT ALLThis is a wonderful live album. Recorded toward the end of Ellas career, by concerts end it is apparent that she has about lost her voice, but not the audiences adoration. The album showcases her in various settings: with the (obviously) reconstituted Chick Webb Orchestra, with Ellis Larkins, with Joe Pass and with Tommy Flanagan (of course); the album also has some nods to the Webb Orchestra, noteworthy for late career blowing by Lockjaw Davis.
