notes

Limited RSD/Black Friday release for 2018.

Recorded at the Shrine Auditorium, Los Angeles, CA, January 21, 1956
Made in the EU.

From the liner notes:
Ella Fitzgerald is likely backed by the same musicians who played on Ella At Zardi's, but this assumption cannot be varified, as the surviving tape does not include an announcement of the accompanists. The personnel, then, is possibly: Don Abney, piano; Vernon Alley or Joe Mondragon, bass; Frank Capp, drums. Newly discovered 20-minute live JATP recording, captured 10 days before Ella at Zardi's; outro announcement references her Zardi's gig.
