The development of Ella Fitzgerald into the unassailable First Lady Of Song is chronicled in this box set. From the swinging chick in front of Chick Webb's Orchestra via her own big band leading days and duets with the likes of Louis Armstrong. Louis Jordan and the Ink Spots, to her emergence as the queen of scat during the 1940s, and her first set of Gershwin songs with pianist Ellis Larkins. Enjoy!

Includes a 52-page illustrated booklet.
