Duke Ellington

• Duke Ellington was a jazz legend ! Numerous
  awards such as Grammy Awards. Mr. Ellington
  also wrote numerous songs for others! You already
  know you are a special talent when you have other
  artists such as Jeep's Blues" for Johnny Hodges,
  "Concerto for Cootie" ("Do Nothing Till You Hear
  from Me") for Cootie Williams and "The Mooche"
  for Tricky Sam Nanton. I feel as if Mr. Ellington
  has paved the way for jazz as a whole! All being
  done between his age cycle of 30-70! For him to
  do that much work in the industry you have got to
  be a legend. The website I also used for this
  biography was wikipedia.com

• My feelings to Boy With A Horn proved
  Ellingtons talent! The lyrics were smashing,
  well written, great critic reports I just didnt
  truly think Mr. Ellington could get any better

• Mr. Ellingtons form of art is sensual,
  party-starter, such as boy meets horn In the dark
  of deepest nightthere comes a haunting
  sighfloating down from somewhere on high,oh,
  what a lonely lullabyYou'll hear a symphony in
  bluewhen ever BOY MEETS HORN,you'll hear a
  melody so new whenBOY MEETS HORNlow and oh,so
  sweet that it seemsIt's like the mellow music
  fromanother world of dreamsyou'll hear a
  strange and tenderwhenever BOY MEETS HORN,and
  when the music in the moonlightgreets the
  morn,you'll see him standing way abovethe crowd
  and rockin on a cloudwhenever BOY MEETS
  HORN.You'll hear a symphony in bluewhen ever
  BOY MEETS HORN,you'll hear a melody so new
  whenBOY MEETS HORNlow and oh,so sweet that it
  seemsIt's like the mellow music fromanother
  world of dreamsyou'll hear a strange and
  tenderwhenever BOY MEETS HORN,and when the
