Guests Dizzy Gillespie, Jimmy Rushing and Jimmy Jones. > Well, I have a LOT of Ellington 78's...mainly 1927-35 (none of the early rarities) but also quite a number of the pre-WWII issues (mostly Victor) and the Musicraft album (where I discovered "Night Train" OUGHT to be titled "Happy-Go-Lucky Local"...!). One LP I can recommend (I no longer own a copy) is his collaboration... I think on Reprise...with Sinatra. IIRC, the title was "Francis Albert Sinatra Meets Edward Kennedy Ellington"... Steven C. Barr
