Duke Ellington - DETS 23
Review by Ginger Steele
DETS 23 is an album that showcases the legendary Duke Ellington's masterful compositions and arrangements. Released in 1953, this album features Ellington's signature big band sound, with a range of jazz styles from swing to bebop.
The album opens with "Happy Go Lucky Local," a lively and upbeat piece that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Ellington's piano playing is showcased in "Azure," a beautiful ballad that features a haunting melody and a lush orchestration.
The album also includes "Harlem Air Shaft," a tribute to Ellington's hometown and a classic example of his ability to capture the essence of a time and place through music. "Take the A Train," one of Ellington's most famous compositions, is given a fresh and swinging treatment on this album.
