Ella Fitzgerald Sings the George and Ira Gershwin Song Book

~ Release by Ella Fitzgerald (see all versions of this release, 12 available)

Annotation

Arguably Ella's masterpiece.
This was originally both as five independent volumes (MGV 4024 to MGV 4029, then reissued as MGVS 6077 to MGVS 6081) and as a 5 LPs boxset (MGV 4029-5).
This is the canonical edition, recommended, that supersedes the previous 3 cd edition.
