This is Vol. 3 of a long series of releases of the complete Treasury Broadcasts from the mid forties. Contracted by the U.S. Treasury Dept. in 1945, Duke Ellington And His Orchestra performed a series of public service radio broadcasts to arouse patriotism and sell war bonds to help the U.S. military defeat the Japanese to end World War II. Besides performing music which was already well known his own as well as others' Ellington uses the programs presented here to test, check and refine new material, such as the tunes "Blutopia" and "Carnegie Blues." It's very lucky that these precious, well recorded radio broadcasts have survived. They represent an important, yet elusive, period in the evolution of jazz namely, the mid 40's. This 2 CD set features several star performers Johnny Hodges, Rex Stewart, AI Sears, Joya Sherrill and AI Hibbler, among others and especially trombonist Lawrence Brown.
Este es el Vol. 3 de una larga serie de ediciones de las emisiones completas del Tesoro de mediados de los años cuarenta. Contratado por el Departamento del Tesoro de EE.UU. en 1945, Duke Ellington y su orquesta realizaron una serie de emisiones de radio de servicio público para despertar el patriotismo y vender bonos de guerra para ayudar al ejército de EE.UU. a derrotar a los japoneses y poner fin a la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Además de interpretar música que ya era bien conocida tanto suya como de otros, Ellington utiliza los programas que aquí se presentan para probar, comprobar y perfeccionar material nuevo, como las melodías "Blutopia" y "Carnegie Blues". Es una gran suerte que estas preciosas y bien grabadas emisiones radiofónicas hayan sobrevivido. Representan un periodo importante, aunque esquivo, en la evolución del jazz, a saber, mediados de los años 40. Este conjunto de 2 CD presenta a varios intérpretes estrella Johnny Hodges, Rex Stewart, AI Sears, Joya Sherrill y AI Hibbler, entre otros, y especialmente al trombonista Lawrence Brown.
Duke Ellington (piano, arranger, leader), Rex Stewart C Cat Anderson (trumpet), Ray Nance (trumpet, violin), Jimmy Hamilton (clarinet, tenor sax), Johnny Hodges (alto sax), AI Sears (tenor sax), Lawrence Brown (trombone), Harry Carney (baritone sax), Billy Strayhorn (piano, arranger), Sonny Greer (drums), AI Hibbler, Joya Sherrill (vocal).

La Segunda Guerra Mundial ha terminado en Europa, pero no en Japón, y Duke Ellington está en la carretera, todavía vendiendo patrióticamente bonos de guerra de EE.UU. a través de programas de radio en vivo. La música que aquí se presenta procede del Paradise Theatre de Detroit y del Regal Theatre de Chicago (mayo de 1945), así como del Café Zanzibar (octubre de 1945). Las grabaciones del Café Zanzibar no se habían publicado hasta ahora. El programa musical que aquí se presenta está mezclado tanto para escuchar como para bailar, e incluye muchos estándares de Duke Ellington, además de varias melodías nuevas o raramente interpretadas. Aunque este 2-CD presenta una versión relativamente "estándar" de la Duke Ellington Orch. de mediados de los años 40, sigue siendo la mejor big band de los EE.UU. y la música está llena de sabrosos solos de Rex Stewart, Sam Nanton, Cat Anderson, Johnny Hodges, Joya Sherrill y el propio Duke.
Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn - piano, arranger, Rex Stewart, Cat Anderson, Ray Nance - trumpet, Sam Nanton, Lawrence Brown - trombone, Al Sears - tenor sax, Jimmy Hamilton - clarinet, Johnny Hodges - alto sax, Harry Carney - baritone, Fred Guy – guitar, Junior Raglin – bass, Sonny Greer - drums, Al Hibbler, Joya Sherrill, Kay Davis, Marie Ellington - vocal
