vinylThese live recordings are over 57 years old and taking this into account are very good. There are two LPs one mono and the other stereo although there are 2 different tracks on each of side 2. I preferred the stereo version which appears to have a little more depth.Playback surface is quiet and overall these are pretty good pressings.The photograph on the cover is the same as Ella recorded by the BBC.There is nothing here you have not heard Ella sing before from her many studio recordings but still a nice package to have.
