Ella Fitzgerald's March 25, 1962 Berlin concert (during which she was supported by the trio of pianist Paul Smith, bassist Wilfred Middlebrooks, and drummer Stan Levey) at the city's Sportpalast was recorded by her producer-manager Norman Granz, but never issued...until now. Verve/UMe has it on both CD and LP, with seventeen swingin' songs including "Jersey Bounce," "Hallelujah, I Love Him So," "Angel Eyes," "Someone to Watch Over Me," "Taking a Chance on Love," "Summertime," "C'est Magnifique," and "Cheek to Cheek."
