At Newport Mobile Fidelity Mono Edition

It spurred Duke Ellington's comeback into the mainstream. It captures a performance so energetic, wild, unexpected, and unprecedented that the music literally caused thousands of people to jump up and stand on their chairs, worrying officials that a riot might ensue. It is jazz of the highest order, played at an almost rock n' roll pace, and with an enthusiastic pep that confirms Ellington and his ensemble fed off the crowd's reaction as the collective lit into each new stanza. It is Ellington's best-selling album. It is Ellington at Newport.

And now, the 1956 classic can be experienced in an analogue fidelity never before as authentic or transparent on any pressing. Mastered on our world-renowned mastering system and pressed at RTI, this numbered edition Silver Series LP of Ellington's triumph boasts tremendous separation, deeper low frequencies, clearer highs, and front-to-back dynamics. Horns blare with multi-hued colour, the Duke's 88s ring out with treble finesse, and the rhythm section claims an added presence buried on previous editions.
