As noted by Bassman, this is a Duke Ellington composition unrelated to the song with the same title by Charlie Parker. It was recorded at Merchandise Mart, 222 West North Bank Street - Suite 1143, Chicago. Working titles included Kalina and Kalino. This orchestra is notable for the presence of newcomers Blanton and Webster. The personnel were: Wallace Jones, Cootie Williams - trumpets Rex Stewart - cornet Juan Tizol - valve trombone - first solo Joe Nanton, Lawrence Brown - trombones - the former has the second solo Barney Bigard Johnny Hodges Otto Hardwick - alto sax Ben Webster - tenor sax Harry Carney Ellington - piano - solo Jimmie Blanton - bass - solo Fred Guy - guitar Sonny Greer - drums.
This piece was recorded on March 6, 1940, and it is not a bebop tune either. Charlie Parker recorded a piece of the same title which has nothing to do with Ellington's Ko-Ko. The Ellington tune is a minor blues composition, while Parker's tune is based on the chords of Cherokee. Just for the record.
This is so motherfucking scary: These sounds….. They belong on an LSD trip for someone who’s used to tweaking crystal. Voices. This is one of the hardcore pieces I played (sax) at a jazz camp: Apparently (in performance) there were rhythmic mishaps , that, as first or second chair, I was in charge of: and messing up. I see what this what effect this could have actually.

1945年のハイソな音質、編曲には恐れ入る。
