Current listening: After having given up local record collecting for over 10 years, was hanging out in Chapel Hill waiting for a concert to start, so wondered down the street to a used bookstore where I used to find 78s.... and found THIS, for 10 bucks! Very...
Can you I.D. this Duke Ellington TV documentary? I'd like to try to get the whole thing:
(I'm assuming this is a Duke Ellington documentary, but it's possible it could be a segment of a documentary on the Harlem Rennaisance which aired a while back, but I missed it...)

Ellington.
Always amazing to compare different arrangements of the same song from the same era, for different record labels, & hear such different "landscapes" - one bright & optimistic, another dark & forboding. Incredible arranging talent.
great box, been using one about 5 yrs - tried two other AM xmitter kit brands out there, neither worked without drift (no fun chasing your music around the dial)
That's what I had in mind.
I'm as much as a Duke Ellington nut as anyone - if you count having a poster of his orchestra, and constantly tracking down and building up to a 100% complete collection of original 78 rpm pressings of his entire 1940-41 Victor recordings (incl. this one), and as many...
