Amazon.com: 3.5 out of 5 stars (2 customer reviews)

5.0 out of 5 stars 22 GREAT VIDEOS OF EARLY DUKE ELLINGTON, Feb 5 2011
By W. BUTLER "lost in las vegas" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Duke Ellington - Swing Era - D (DVD)
Just to balance out an incredibly vapid 2 Star review from someone who says "it could have been better" but does not say how. As this 60 min. DVD appears to contains all the available black and white snippets Duke made in Hollywood in the 30's one wonders where the compilers went wrong? The visual and sound quality is remarkably good too. For the rest of my review please see the comment I added before realising it was a DUTY to let Ellington enthusiasts know this is as good a visual historical record of his 1929-43 period as you are likely to get. There are a few other videos of his later bands contained in the PBS 2-part documentary but to see them means ploughing thru 2 hours of Ducal interviews (which can get rather boring watched over and over).

2.0 out of 5 stars could have been a whole lot better, Mar 10 2006
By P. Atkins - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Duke Ellington - Swing Era - D (DVD)
Credits are important. They help define the creative process and guide the viewer's point of view. We like to know what we are watching, especially nostalgic compilations like this. Other than a few brief liner notes, the DVD does not impart enough information and leaves the viewer disappointed. The Duke is great, this DVD is not.
