Notes

Don't get fooled by the ugly sleeve, this actually is an album - in fact, it's Fitzgerald's last studio record.
Probably only interesting to completists: unfortunately, at that time, the First Lady was pretty diminished, and this record is more embarassing than interesting - note that this fact didn't stopped the Grammy jury to grant her her final award for this performance.
This is a late reissue with two unissued tracks.
