This is the first-time release of live radio broadcasts with the Duke Ellington Orchestra from the Hollywood Empire club in Los Angeles in 1949. This 71-minute/17-tune CD was recorded during a transitional period in Ellington's career, when the swing big bands were dying out and bebop was on the rise, and several of the tunes reflect the new bebop trend. Almost half of the compositions performed on this CD were never again performed by Duke Ellington. On this CD the Ellington Orchestra features Billy Strayhorn, Al Hibbler, Ben Webster, Ray Nance, Harry Carney and Johnny Hodges. As is usually the case with Duke Ellington, this CD deserves repeated listening in order to solve the "mystery" of Ellington's wonderful, complex musical ideas.

Esta es la primera vez que se publica una emisión de radio en directo con la Duke Ellington Orchestra desde el club Hollywood Empire de Los Ángeles en 1949. Este CD de 71 minutos y 17 melodías se grabó durante un período de transición en la carrera de Ellington, cuando las grandes bandas de swing estaban desapareciendo y el bebop estaba en auge, y varias de las melodías reflejan la nueva tendencia del bebop. Casi la mitad de las composiciones interpretadas en este CD no volvieron a ser interpretadas por Duke Ellington. En este CD la Orquesta de Ellington cuenta con Billy Strayhorn, Al Hibbler, Ben Webster, Ray Nance, Harry Carney y Johnny Hodges. Como suele ocurrir con Duke Ellington, este CD merece ser escuchado repetidamente para resolver el "misterio" de las maravillosas y complejas ideas musicales de Ellington.
