Duke Ellington - Playlist: The Very Best of Duke Ellington

Duke was as versatile a composer as he was genius. He got people swingin' with goofy hits such as "Diga Diga Doo." He wrote the anthems of the Great Depression with songs such as "New East St. Louis Toodle-oo," and then he helped jazz mature with the smoothest romantic sophistication the genre ever has or ever will see. Enjoy a great mix of 14 Ellington classics.
