Monday Night Standards - Duke Ellington - Ivie Anderson - It Don't Mean A Thing

 

"It Don't Mean a Thing" is originally a 1931 composition by Duke Ellington with lyrics by Irving Mills, singed in 1932 by the vocal diva Ivie Anderson.

I should know more about Duke Ellington's career than I do as well as the People he worked with.
