Comment:

I got the idea for this mix looking at another Duke mix. Little did I know that it would grow into a 2 volume (and still could be more) mix. And I didn't want to label it as a single artist since these mixes are more of a tribute to the prolific writing of Duke.

same as everyone else: any Duke is a good one. BTW, do you happen to have on CD the Duke Ellington, Mel Torme version of Porgy & Bess?? If so, contact me please as I've looked all over and can't find it.
