Verve records releases the latest editions in its breakout 'Great Women of Song' series, which pays homage to the ground-breaking work and lasting impact of some of the greatest female vocalists of all time. Known internationally as 'the first lady of song', Ella Fitzgerald was also, importantly, the first lady of verve records - the label that was essentially created for her by her manager and the label's founder, Norman Granz. This collection brings together Ella's most cherished recordings in the company of American music's greatest performers and composers - Louis Armstrong, George & Ira Gershwin, Irving Berlin and Jerome Kern, among many others.
