Our Take

The first thing that hits you about Ella Fitzgerald's "Three Classic Albums Plus" is the sheer timeless charm of her voice. It's like being serenaded by an angel with a touch of sass. The way she effortlessly glides from high notes to low notes is enough to make any other singer green with envy.

These albums showcase Fitzgerald's incredible range and versatility, from the swinging jazz numbers on "Ella Fitzgerald Sings Sweet Songs for Swingers" to the soulful ballads on "Ella Swings Lightly". It's like she's a chameleon, effortlessly adapting to whatever style she's performing.

One of the highlights of the collection is Fitzgerald's interpretation of the Great American Songbook. Her renditions of classics like "It's Only a Paper Moon" and "I Didn't Know What Time It Was" are pure magic. You can practically hear the smile in her voice as she takes on each song with grace and finesse.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "Three Classic Albums Plus". There are moments of melancholy and longing, like in Fitzgerald's haunting performance of "You're Blase". It's a reminder that even the brightest stars have their shadows.

In conclusion, Ella Fitzgerald's "Three Classic Albums Plus" is a masterclass in vocal artistry. If you're looking for a timeless collection of music that will make you feel all the feels, look no further. Ella's got you covered.

About the artist

Ella Fitzgerald

Ella Fitzgerald, the First Lady of Song, is a jazz icon who needs no introduction. With a career spanning over six decades, Fitzgerald's mesmerising voice and improvisational skills have earned her a well-deserved spot in the music hall of fame. Born in 1917 in Virginia, Fitzgerald's talent was evident from a young age. Discovered at a Harlem talent show in the 1930s, she quickly rose to fame with her smooth, velvety vocals and impeccable scatting techniques. Known for her breathtaking range and pitch-perfect delivery, Fitzgerald's performances were always a sight to behold. Throughout her illustrious career, Fitzgerald collaborated with some of the biggest names in jazz, including Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Louis Armstrong. Her groundbreaking series of "songbook" albums, in which she covered the works of famous composers like Cole Porter and George Gershwin, cemented her status as a true musical genius. Fitzgerald's influence extends far beyond the realm of jazz. Her ability to inject emotion and soul into every note she sings has inspired countless artists across genres. From pop to rock to hip-hop, Fitzgerald's legacy lives on through the artists she has inspired. As a music reviewer, it is hard not to be in awe of Fitzgerald's unparalleled talent and impact on the music world. Her timeless voice continues to enchant listeners to this day, proving that true talent knows no bounds. Ella Fitzgerald may no longer be with us, but her music will live on forever.
