Original Grooves showcases the vinyl cutting technique known as “parallel grooves”, where tracks are cut side-by-side instead of one after another, allowing for a different aural experience depending on where the needle is dropped. Our sophomore release in the series comes from the incomparable Ella Fitzgerald. Ella regularly performed ‘Mack the Knife’ – popularized by Bobby Darin and Louis Armstrong – and George Gershwin’s ‘Summertime’: both are included on this release, lifted from the recently discovered, recently released “Ella: The Lost Berlin Tapes” live recording from 1962. We’ve paired these two cuts with their 1960 counterparts from the Grammy-award winning live album “Ella in Berlin: Mack the Knife”. Grab this limited edition release and be transported back to Berlin in 1960. Or …1962. You won’t know what you’ll hear until the needle drops

Tracks:

- Mack The Knife (1960) 5:14
- Mack The Knife (1962) 4:50
- Summertime (1960) 2:56
- Summertime (1962) 2:59
