Ellington Indigos

Ellington Indigos is a 1958 jazz album by Duke Ellington.

Alternate versions
The original mono (CL 1085) and stereo (CS 8053) LP issues contained some different takes between them on various tracks, "Willow Weep for Me" being one of them. The CD (CBS 463342 2) liner notes say that "All The Things You Are and "Night and Day" were previously unreleased versions and that "Autumn Leaves" was an alternate take. Analyzing the two versions of "Autumn Leaves" shows that they are identical; however, the LP has Ozzie Bailey's first vocal chorus (a French one) edited out. (There is indeed an alternate version of "Autumn Leaves" recorded September 9, 1957, available on Duke Ellington & His Great Vocalists [Columbia CK 66372]). The stereo versions of "Mood Indigo" and "Willow Weep for Me" are different from their mono counterparts. There are a multitude of versions of this album in circulation. For instance, there is another mono take of "Mood Indigo" available on the LP (CBS 88653 side 2, track 6).
