On April 3, 1961, producer Bob Thiele achieved what should be regarded as one of his greatest accomplishments he organized and supervised a seven-and-a-half-hour session at RCA Victor's Studio One on East 24th Street in Manhattan, using a sextet combining Duke Ellington with Louis Armstrong & His All-Stars. Although their paths had crossed from time to time over the years, nobody in the entertainment industry had ever managed to get Armstrong and Ellington into a recording studio to make an album together. Both men were born on the cusp of the 19th and 20th centuries, and each became established as a leader during the middle '20s. Any way you look at it, just about everything that's ever happened in this music leads directly – or indirectly – back to them.
