Tracks list

       One of the forgotten live LPs from the career of vocal jazz's most
impressive live artist, Ella at Juan-Les-Pins found Ella Fitzgerald at the Fifth
Festival Mondial du Jazz Antibes, Juan-les-Pins, France, in July 1964, working
with a great group: trumpeter Roy Eldridge, pianist Tommy Flanagan, bassist Bill
Yancey, and drummer Gus Johnson. The group doesn't get as much space as they
deserve, but with Fitzgerald a commanding presence, it's hardly ever felt. And
she does give the appreciative crowd the show they're looking for; whereas most
vocalists have treated songs like "Them There Eyes" and "Perdido" as features
for their playful side, Fitzgerald simply rips them apart with twisting, turning
wordplay, breakneck tempos the band can hardly keep up with, and scats no
listener can digest the first or second time through. She wrings all the selfish
joi de vivre from "The Lady Is a Tramp" (addressing herself), then, with barely
a pause, moves into a carefully paced "Summertime." Two recent crossovers,
Barbra Streisand's "People" and the Beatles' "Can't Buy Me Love," serve as
pleasant stopgap items between the real show, and Fitzgerald reprises her
legend-making rendition of "Mack the Knife" from Ella in Berlin, describing the
entire sorted Brecht-to-Darin-to-Armstrong history of the song while never
losing her sense of swing. Throughout, she never fails to energize or charm her
audience.
