Our Take

Duke Ellington, the Duke of swing himself, teams up with the legendary Conny Plank for a session that is as unexpected as it is brilliant. The Conny Plank Session is a unique blend of Ellington's classic big band sound and Plank's innovative production techniques that results in a truly special listening experience.

From the moment the first track kicks in, you can feel the energy and chemistry between Ellington and his orchestra. The brass section is tight, the rhythm section is on fire, and Ellington's piano playing is as masterful as ever. But what really sets this album apart is Plank's production. He brings a modern edge to Ellington's sound, with experimental effects and studio wizardry that add a whole new dimension to the music.

Tracks like "Swingin' with Plank" and "Funky Duke" showcase this fusion of old and new perfectly, with infectious grooves and playful melodies that will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head in no time. And let's not forget the stunning cover of "Take the 'A' Train", which is a fresh and exciting take on a classic tune.

Overall, The Conny Plank Session is a triumph of collaboration and creativity. Ellington and Plank have created something truly special here, a timeless album that will delight fans old and new. Don't miss out on this one - it's a must-listen for any music lover.
