Duke Ellington – Midnight In Paris - Vinyl LP Record

Duke Ellington was completely enamoured with Paris, and it seemed that the city – which had always provided a haven for American jazz musicians seeking freedom in their lives and work – loved Ellington in return. In 1973, French President Georges Pompidou awarded Duke Ellington France’s highest honour, the Legion of Honour, nominating the bandleader as “a great musician, a great American and a great friend of our country.” True on all counts. Discover Paris with this LP including “Mademoiselle De Paris” “Guitar Amour” and “The River Seine”.
