Live At Montreux 1969 captures Ella's very first performance at the famed Montreux Jazz Festival – an event that she would return to several times in the years to come. On this special night, she was joined by the Tommy Flanagan Trio for a set list traversing American classics and contemporary hits. Ella delivers her smooth, timeless renditions of "I Won't Dance" and "That Old Black Magic", along with her inspired takes on Paul McCartney's "Hey Jude", Cream's "Sunshine of Your Love", and Dionne Warwick's "This Girl's In Love With You".
There is no denying the potency of Ella Fitzgerald's work, from her dynamic, instantly recognizable vocal range to her one-of-a-kind scat-phrasing, which set a precedent for jazz music and beyond. An American treasure of the highest caliber, Fitzgerald's influence is an essential thread woven into musical history. This is brilliantly displayed on Ella Fitzgerald: Live At Montreux 1969.
