Beginning in the mid-'50s, Ella Fitzgerald and producer Norman Granz began the Songbook series, a string of albums devoted to the works of classic American songwriters like Duke Ellington, Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, Jerome Kern, Cole Porter, Harold Arlen and George and Ira Gershwin. LOVE SONGS: BEST OF THE VERVE SONGBOOKS is a wonderful, though far from comprehensive, precis of these indispensable albums. With backing from the orchestras of Ellington, Count Basie, Nelson Riddle and Billy May, Fitzgerald performs magnificent, often definitive, versions of some of the greatest pop songs ever written.
