Duke Ellington & John Coltrane is a jazz album by Duke Ellington and John Coltrane recorded on September 26, 1962, and released in February 1963 on Impulse! Records. It was one of Ellington's many collaborations in the early 1960s with musicians such as Count Basie, Louis Armstrong, Coleman Hawkins, Max Roach, and Charles Mingus, and placed him with a quartet (in this case, saxophone, piano, bass, and drums), rather than a big band. The quartet was filled out by the bassist and drummer from either of their bands. The album featured Ellington standards (e.g., "In a Sentimental Mood"), new Ellington compositions, and a new Coltrane composition ("Big Nick"). Coltrane said: I was really honored to have the opportunity of working with Duke. It was a wonderful experience. He has set standards I haven't caught up with yet. I would have liked to have worked over all those numbers again, but then I guess the performances wouldn't have had the same spontaneity. And they mightn't have been any better!

The second of four volumes that fully document a 1976 engagement at the Pawnshop Jazz Club in Stockholm, Sweden, this set differs from the others in that vibraphonist Lars Erstrand is not present. Arne Domnerus (on alto and clarinet) heads a quartet also featuring pianist Bengt Hallberg, bassist Georg Riedel and drummer Egil Johnasen. Other than an African folk song (a second version of "High Life,") and a Swedish folk song, the repertoire is dominated by swing standards; highlights include a lengthy "In a Mellow Tone," "Poor Butterfly" and "Things Ain't What They Used to Be."

First time on CD for this classic jazz album originally released in 1974 on Atlantic. Musicians include John Abercrombie, the Brecker Brothers & George Duke. 2000 release. Standard jewel case.

专辑介绍： 19岁那年，Annekei离开了她的家乡丹麦，来到美国纽约追逐她的音乐梦想。从2002 年开始，她便开始在纽约的各个演出场所表演，这位年轻的灵乐歌手在Metropolitan Café、Rockwood Music Hall、Bowery Poetry Club、Blue Note等著名演唱地点都留下了足迹。2003年，Annekei参加了一个业余歌手的TV show比赛“Showtime at The Apollo”，并且最终打入决赛，这次比赛也让她的作品“Close Your Eyes”受到了一些关注。 2006 年，Annekei签约了日本的厂牌“Being Records”，并在同年9月发布了首张专辑《Annekei》。这张专辑里的单曲“Brother”大受欢迎，帮助这张专辑在日本唱片排行榜的第4位停留了两周，也在日本的iTunes商店上销量前茅，这样的成绩使Annekei在AD LIB 2006获得了“最佳国外新人”的头衔。伴随着这种上升的势头，Annekei开始在日本巡演，并且在2007年发行了第二张专辑《Tsuki》，这张专辑使她的音乐开始被全亚洲接受。Annekei最近的作品是《Letter》，这是一张和韩国吉他手Jack Lee共同打造的美丽“情书”。 由于在亚洲出道，Annekei的作品更加贴近亚洲用户的口味，尽管她的专辑偏向Jazz风格，但却不想欧美歌手那样偏向于即兴演唱，也可以看作是亚洲风格的流行Jazz吧。
