One of the great Duke Ellington sets". Three factors stand out in the interpretation of Ellington's music on this album: Betty Roche's vocal on a multi movement version of "Take The 'A' Train," the addition of Louie Bellson on drums (Skin Deep), and the updating of old Ellington material that is made new and fresh. The extended piece "A Tone Parallel to Harlem" (also known as "The Harlem Suite" or just "Harlem") has often been singled out as one of Ellington's great achievements. Take the "A" Train" (Billy Strayhorn) - 8:02. A Tone Parallel to Harlem (Harlem Suite)" - 13:48 Previously released on Ellington Uptown only. Perdido" (Juan Tizol) - 8:25. Controversial Suite Part 1: Before My Time" - 6:09 Previously released on Hi-Fi Ellington Uptown only. Controversial Suite Part 2: Later" - 4:14 Previously released on Hi-Fi Ellington Uptown only.
By 1947, when Duke Ellington jumped to Columbia after a brief stay at Musicraft (following six years at RCA Victor), he had one of the best bands anyone ever led, in any category of music. The tragedy was that Columbia squandered its opportunity to use them. Liberian Suite brought Ellington to a new level of recognition. He'd begun writing multi-section suites in the early '40s, but Liberian Suite was his first international commission, from the government of the African nation, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of its founding by freed American slaves; it was the first formal manifestation of a process by which Ellington would be a virtual musical ambassador to the world by the. end of the next decade.
