Duke Ellington The Great Paris Concert 2009-08-04 Released by Transparent Arts Corp[[Release Detail]]This set came about, in part, as a result of Ellingtons signing to Frank Sinatras Reprise label in November 1962, with the ending of his exclusive contract to Columbia. Six numbers from the three Paris dates were initially edited and released by Reprise as part of the ten song Duke Ellingtons Greatest Hits, but the bulk of the performances from those shows didnt surface until many years later as The Great Paris Concert on two LPs.
