    ELLA FITZGERALD & LOUIS ARMSTRONG Ella & Louis Again (Verve GV4006-2) was the second album pairing Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong produced by Norman Granz for his Verve label.

    After recording a series of duets in the late 1940s for the Decca label, they were summoned by Granz in 1956 to make a series of sessions which would result in the memorable Ella and Louis. Such was the success of the LP, that the formula was repeated the following year with the making of this LP (their third and last album for Granz would be a selection of songs from George Gershwin's Porgy and Bess). To get such marvellous results, Granz surrounded the stars by almost the same outstanding quartet that had backed them on their previous LP, consisting of Oscar Peterson on piano, Herb Ellis on guitar, Ray Brown on bass, and Louis Bellson replacing Buddy Rich on drums. While the first album included just duets, Ella and Louis Again was a double-LP set which also contained some songs performed individually by either Ella or Louis.

    ELLA FITZGERALD, vocals LOUIS ARMSTRONG, trumpet & vocals OSCAR PETERSON, piano HERB ELLIS, guitar RAY BROWN, bass LOUIS BELLSON, drums Recorded in Hollywood, July-August 1957. Original sessions produced by NORMAN GRANZ.
