Behind the Song: Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong Duets

Some of Louis Armstrong’s most beloved recordings - and some of the greatest recordings of all time - are his duets with Ella Fitzgerald. Ricky Riccardi from the Louis Armstrong House Museum shares rare artifacts that illuminate the story of this remarkable musical partnership, which endured until the day Armstrong passed.

You have a very special job! Wonderful! I had a special high quality pressing of Ell and Louis, but I gave away my record player and the records, because i couldn't keep them, due to my children always wanted to touch the arm (it was an expensive one). And with that I also gave away my record collection to a friend! He is a real audiophile and listens almost every day to records. So it got a good new destiny! (still sad for my self a bit)
