A CLASSY PAIR is a most apt title for this session, which features Ella Fitzgerald and the final incarnation of the Count Basie Orchestra, perhaps the last major big band to exist under the baton of its namesake. Classy Pair album recorded in February 1979 and produced by the legendary Norman Granz, these nine tracks show Fitzgerald in a somewhat better light than the orchestra. Still in exquisite voice though in her early 60s, Fitzgerald shines throughout, from the opening "Honeysuckle Rose" through to the closing "Sweet Lorraine." Her particular highlight is a swinging, saucy "Ain't Misbehavin'," featuring a breathtaking scat solo. Classy Pair songs Fitzgerald's vocals more than make up for the occasional weaknesses of her settings, however.

Recorded at Group IV Studios, Hollywood, February 15, 1979.
