More Duke Ellington Greatest Hits
is designed for the casual fan, who only wants
Ellington's
best-known songs, such as
"Things Ain't What They Used to Be,"
"My Old Flame," "Jumpin' Room Only" and "All Day Long." Though jazz purists will find the sampler nature of this compilation frustratingly incomplete, it's an excellent supplement to
Greatest Hits
, especially for listeners that only want a handful of the Duke's finest work. ~ Thom Owens
