The Bethlehem Years, Volume I. Bethlehem Item No: 541430. Duke Ellington - Duke Ellington His Piano And His Orchestra At The Bal Masque LP. Sal Salvador. Shades Of Sal Salvador.
Duke Ellington Presents was one of Duke’s last mid-50s recordings to be put out before his big comeback at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1956. The mid-50s are considered a bit of a down time for Ellington as he was no longer writing new material and was being encouraged by labels to record his older hits in the new hi-fidelity LP format. What made this album unique was that most of these tunes were not part of the usual Ellington repertoire, but were instead songs made popular by others, thus the attraction to Ellington fans who wanted to hear Duke’s take on well known classics such as My Funny Valentine, Laura, Summertime and others. Another unique aspect of this album is that most of these cuts are ballads, making it must have for fans of Duke’s more mellow side. Each tune gives plenty of room for the appointed soloist to show off their lyrical abilities and personality.
The Pianist is a studio album by American pianist, composer and bandleader Duke Ellington compiled from sessions in 1966 and 1970, and released on the Fantasy label in 1974.

Bethlehem’s version, over the years, has emerged as the high point of the various attempts by jazz singers and musicians to put Porgy on record. George Gershwin's folk opera got this jazz treatment for the very first time in 1956 starring Mel Tormé as Porgy and Frances Faye as Bess. Bethlehem Records put nearly their entire roster of vocalists and musicians in the studio to cut this all-star session.
This is the discography of Duke Ellington. Most of these recordings are listed by the year they were recorded rather than year released. Reissues are listed for most of the recordings released before the 1950s, as the original 78s are rare.
