	Ray Ellington - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ray Ellington (born Ray Brown March 17, 1916, died February 28, 1985) was a popular Engish singer, drummer and bandleader.
		Ellington specialised in jazz but experimented with many other genres throughout the show's history and his musical style was heavily influenced by the comedic jump blues of Louis Jordan.
		Ellington's band was one of the first in the UK to feature the stripped-back guitar/bass/drums/piano format that became the basis of rock'n'roll, as well as being one of the first groups in Britain to prominently feature the electric guitar.

	California Ballroom - Bands - Ray Ellington
		The quartet which drummer Ray Ellington led at the end of the 1940s was a compact unit which succeeded in blending the more melodic aspects of bebop with the kind of music associated with the Nat Cole Trio.
		The basic group comprised Ray, pianist Dick Katz (not to be confused with an American pianist of the same name), Coleridge Goode on bass and either Lauderic Caton or Laurie Deniz on guitar.
		Ellington was a fine small-band drummer and an attractive vocalist, while Katz was a hugely underrated pianist with a penchant for Duke Ellington voicings and introductions.

		Ray Nance was an integral part of the Duke Ellington orchestra from 1940 to 1963 although he took a break in the early '40s to lead his own groups.
		When Ray was with Duke he was known as 'Floorshow', a tribute to his ability to entertain an audience with a varied, one-man show if necessary.
		Ray Nance, Duke Ellington's longtime trumpeter, is an under-appreciated violinist who at age 17 became inspired by South's orchestra during a visit to the Chin Chow Chinese Restaurant in his hometown of Chicago.

		It captures Duke Ellington in a (fairly) rare duo setting, playing songs he is associated with, with the great jazz bassist Ray Brown, one of the pioneers of great jazz bass.
		Hearing Ellington and Brown together is an amazing experience, as you hear two master instrumentalists deliver the essence of songs normally associated with a full jazz orchestra.
		Ray is stronger (if that's possible) than ever--supplying mammoth cushions of sound in support of Ellington's harmonies as well as taking on at least as much of the melodic load as Ellington.

	NPR's Jazz Profiles: Ray Barretto
		For nearly 40 years, conguero and bandleader Ray Barretto has been one of the leading forces in Latin jazz.
		While she attended night school to study English, Ray and his siblings were glued to the radio, listening to jazz.
		Unfortunately, at this point in jazz history, the conga drum was viewed as a mere adornment and Barretto rarely performed on the road with these musicians.

	The Private Collection
		It blows your mind to think that this is the kind of stuff Ellington had in the vaults when he died.
		There is a version of "Jump For Joy" on volume 1 which features the clarinet of Jimmy Hamilton that captures that beautiful and uplifting melody better than any other version.
		The Private Collection has also been released on CD on Unidisc, but the Saja version is the one to have because the two tracks on volume 5 are indexed so that you can get right to each individual movement of the two long works (if your CD player has an indexing feature, that is).

		The first interlude featured Max Geldray, a fantastic Dutch harmonica player, and the second featured the smooth tones of Ray Ellington on vocals.
