Limited edition 180 gram vinyl audiophile pressing. This essential Duke Ellington album with Mahalia Jackson is a revised version of Ellington's Black, Brown and Beige suite from 1943, in which the original three-part suite is divided into six shorter sections.
5 Stars Down Beat 1958 review: "What Ellington and Mahalia have done has created a gentle, reverent, powerful prayer. There is nothing else I can write to describe or interpret this album. I was moved by it through more than six listening sessions. I think it's the best work Duke's band has done in years. I think, too, that Mahalia's presence was a stimulus to the performance which makes this more than another Ellington LP, but rather an Ellington milestone." - Dom Cer
