This two-disc package features highlights from several concerts by Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzgerald during the Le Festival International de Jazz d'Antibes-Juan-les-Pins in the south of France between July 26 and July 29, 1966. Both jazz legends are in top form throughout and the obvious affection between them results in some sublime musical interaction. This LP set also includes a pair of additional Ellington pieces -- "The Trip" and "Jive Jam" -- from the 29th. Although the collection lacks the organic cohesion of a singular performance, the 18 tracks do feature some undeniably prime moments. Of the nine vocals, only three -- "Mack the Knife," "It Don't Mean a Thing...," and "Just Squeeze Me..." -- feature both Sir Duke and Ella together.
