Topic: Ellis Larkins


In the News (Thu 31 Dec 09)

In this second volume, the familiar and the unfamiliar are again side by side, as Ruby Braff and Ellis Larkins again don their agent's headphones, turn on their ancient radio and once more announce, "Calling Berlin," Irving Berlin, that is. Braff's virtuosic flights are never exhibitionistic, so few jazz musicians "sing" like him any more.
They were, in fact, paying tribute to Berlin, the great American songwriter, Irving Berlin, whose songs they intended recording that day...Ruby Braff and Ellis Larkins first recorded together in 1955.
Now here they are once more, twenty two years later, still going strong like Scotland's famous Johnny Walker." - Stanley Dance, author of The World of Swing
