Ella Fitzgerald Classic 45

I just got a copy of "Let No Man Write My Epitaph", which I'm thrilled about. I received 2 records with 3 tracks each. Is this the complete package? I've heard so much about this(can't wait to get home and listen to it)but assumed it was the whole lp, not half of it.

Thanks.

that is the complete package. it is my ultimate test for system neutrality. Ella's voice is ALL there.....and anything that gets in the way or colors it jumps right out.

i call it the 'Ella' test.....and many pretty damn good pieces didn't pass this test.

i have an unopenned set of this 45rpm set just in case.

enjoy!!

I wasn't aware of this set, when did it come out? May I ask where you got it? I looked on all the Classic Records distributors website and can't find it.

it has been out of print for 5 or 6 years. on Ebay or Audiogon it has sold for around $200 to $350.

my back-up copy is not for sale.

i have never heard a better sounding record.

It's was released in 1999, a sealed copy sold on Ebay last week that I bid on at a $100.00. There was also a 20bit Gold CD title offered of the same title by Classic Records. This was the only other Ella by Classic along with Here comes Charlie.
