PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNGEN Duke Box 2 begins in 1952 and picks up where the first Duke Box left off; covering his music-making right up until the autumn of 1972, less than two years before he died. This means that it is filled with a treasure trove of both studio and live recordings; such as Birdland, NYC, from 1952, Kongressaal, Munich from 1958, and Tivoli, Stockholm from 1963. Of particular interest here are the late 60 s and early 70 s studio sessions (mostly recorded in New York). As a bonus, there is a fascinating DVD of the band in action, filmed at Pathé Studios, NYC in 1962. Housed in a lid-off long box, containing a 28 page booklet crammed with unseen photos and full track annotation, and completed with liner notes by Ellington expert Brian Priestley. Tracks: CD1.
