S2E27-This week on GPE -- what does a singer do when she is traveling through Europe, doing concert after concert, and gets a head cold? Well, listen in as Miss Ella does a concert in France in 1969 with a cold! As always, I will be there to share insider stories about the songs, the performances, and Miss Ella herself!

She was noted for her purity of tone, impeccable diction, phrasing, timing, intonation, absolute pitch, and a "horn-like" improvisational ability, particularly in her scat singing
