Notes
Recorded in New York, NY for CBS, 23 and 27 January 1956, the original release on Columbia has 11 tracks, but two more were recorded where Ellington doesn't play and Billy Strayhorn takes his place. These two tracks (If You Were In My Place and Just-A-Sittin' And A-Rockin') have been added on the 2008 CD reissue. Clooney out on Passion Flower.
Rosemary Clooney was pregnant and unable to travel when these sessions were made, so her vocals were recorded separately from the Duke Ellington Orchestra.

Reviews
This record melts the room. It sounds so good. Clooney’s voice is fantastic and she is there with you. The reed section blows me away and Duke just kills it as always. A beautiful mono remaster.referencing Blue Rose (LP, Album, Mono) CL 872
This, I believe is the very first two track recording. Clooney at her best, Ellington, well, enough said. Columbia saddled Clooney with the worst songs possible except here. Wonderful vocals, wonderful orchestra, wonderful album.
referencing Blue Rose (LP, Album) CL 872
I have this LP with matrix on B side "XLP37685-1B" (one "P" only, not two).
referencing Blue Rose (LP, Album, Mono) CL 872
This old school music is fabulous, very classy pairing Clooney with Duke Ellington.
