Born on this date in 1917, Ella Jane Fitzgerald⭐️ Jazz singer, songwriter, legend. "Known for her purity of tone, impeccable diction, phrasing, timing, intonation, absolute pitch, and a "horn-like" improvisational ability, particularly in her scat singing." - Wikipedia #blacksky #blackskyover40

I queued up 4 of these for the ride home. I can only imagine being in this room and feeling the energy. Trapp Jazz and the "1500 Or Nothing Band." #blacksky #blackskyover40 youtu.be/zWOajIDdla0?...
