        Only twice did my son stop by the study ( it's really just a room) while I was working and ask, "Who's that?" First time was for Ella. Second was for Oscar Peterson. He took all my vinyl to New York.

        What a stunning photo. I remain perpetually grateful that I got to see her in concert (& once saw her being driven around west LA in a chauffeured Rolls). She was - and is - EVERYTHING.

        Had the privilege of seeing Miss Ella with Oscar Peterson and Joe Pass in Seattle in the ‘70s. Best concert I ever attended. It was truly magical.

        My dad is a professional musician and backed up many famous entertainers. Ms. Ella was one of them. As a kid I got to see her perform and met her at rehearsal. Great lady.

        This is around the same time she appeared on Hugh Hefner's "Playboy Penthouse Party" on ABC in Chicago, on sets designed by my father. Tony Bennett, Lenny Bruce and Nat King Cole were on the same show.
