- Legendary jazz icon Ella Fitzgerald appeared at The Embers Nightclub in Toorak Road, South Yarra, Melbourne on 4 December 1960 in a performance that was filmed for Channel 9's "BP Super Show" and broadcast on January 1961. Backed by her regular group at the time, the Lou Levy Quartet (Lou Levy (p); Wilf Middlebrooks (b); Herb Ellis (g); and Gus Johnson (d)), Lady Ella put in a typically masterful performance of jazz, blues & show standards..including this brilliant rendition of her then current hit "Mack The Knife"
Why wasn't I born in 60's?
Nobody on this planet can skat like that anymore...I would love to go back in time to listen to her and Duke jam it out.😊😊😊😊
Bobby, Ella, and Louis each had their own spin on this classic and each iteration holds its own merits. Bobby's rendition is by far the best, Louis is the most laid back, but Ella sure knows how to make this song her own as well with the energy she poured into it. This woman was one of a kind. RIP.
I ❤ Ella's the best. Especially when she starts scattin' and the Satchmo impression. Her voice is magic to me.
How is the crowd clapping so politely I would be shrieking after that.
That was probably the 1960 Australia equivalent of a standing ovation. 😃
Naturally special singer. Xxx RIP special woman
Ella rockin' a nightclub. That must've been amazing!!
she was supremely talented
Pure class from Ella! Love it!!!
Class

Fairly sure I read in a Sinatra biography that Ella went straight back to Washington after these shows at the Embers to appear in the star - studded spectacular that Frank produced for JFK's inaugural celebration. Great piece of history that you've posted here. Thanks.
superlative talent for this young woman.

Auto tune ? What’s that ? Honey I don’t thank I need that . Legend , Legend , Legend .
That BP sign at the back, hopefully not an advert for BP Petroleum
You know damn well that's British Petroleum. Queen Lizzy wouldn't have it any other way, Australia is a British commonwealth.
À bit special and way above average!
una diosa irrepetible del Jazz.
BP, British p.e.t.r.o.l.em, in a no win corner
Does anyone have any info on the venue and date?! I didn’t even know she came to Australia! Wow
Melissa Burgess, this was recorded at Embers Nightclub in Toorak Rd, Sth Yarra on 4th December, 1960. It was later broadcast on Channel 9's BP Supershow & was issued on DVD through Umbrella Entertainment in 2013 as "BP Super Show : Ella Fitzgerald Live In Australia" Well worth hunting down if you can find a copy
Micko's Aussie Rock & Pop Legends (..well mostly) thank you so much!!
the female version of LOUIS ARMSTRONG
