Ella Fitzgerald - The Concert Years
[Recorded 1953-1983, 4CD Box Set] (1994)
Aangezien dit een best-of-collectie is, die met veel liefde is samengesteld door de deskundige producer Eric Miller, is de muziek consistent de moeite waard en benadrukt deze de interpretatieve vaardigheden, scatting en jazzfrasering van de First Lady of Song. Hoewel Ella meestal wordt begeleid door haar trio/kwartetten uit die periode, jamt ze ook met de JATP All-Stars uit 1953 in "Perdido", wordt ze in sommige nummers begeleid door de Duke Ellington en Count Basie Orchestras en brengt ze in 1983 een nieuwe versie van "Flying Home" met een all-star groep. De meest opmerkelijke uitvoering is "C Jam Blues" uit 1972, waarin Ella opmerkelijke muzikale grappen uitwisselt met Al Grey, Stan Getz, Harry "Sweets" Edison, Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis en Roy Eldridge.
