About

The Duke at his most soulfully nocturnal. An elegant, romantic set of ballads from the master of American large-group jazz. The 1958 album features performances of jazz standards such as "Mood Indigo", "Autumn Leaves", and "Prelude To a Kiss".

“Duke Ellington and his all-star ensemble lay back on this beautiful set of swinging, romantic ballads now available for the first time in pristine 180-gram vinyl. Ellington was often imitated, never equaled. There's a clear "blue mood" at work in these sessions and Kevin Gray's all-analog mastering brings out a nocturnal mood, while keeping things warm and mellow. A deep and wide soundstage, mellifluous lows and crystalline highs make Indigos a perfect accompaniment to your late night listening.” — (via Impex Records)
