Porgy & Bess - The Jazz Opera by George Gershwin, is truly a milestone in jazz history. It describes the life of African Americans in the settlement of Catfish Row in Charleston around 1870 and tells the touching love story between Porgy & Bess. The eponymous album by Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong presents a magnificent selection of the best pieces from Gershwin's opera and is a jewel that no jazz collection should be without.
