Ellington had contractual problems during this period, which was right after Strayhorn joined the band and changed Ellingtons harmonic palette. Without a contract Ellington was free to record what ever he wanted without worrying about hits. Most Ellington fans consider this his best decade. This is the 1944 version. There is an earlier 1942 version I believe. There is also a longer version on the album Soul Call from 1967... genius... https://youtube/watch?v=aGdSPXSaVNM
