Renma) Around 2004, Duke Ellington's eldest grandson, guitarist Edward Kennedy Ellington II founded this cover band. With solos by turn playful, prodigious and sultry, trombonist Wycliffe Gordon is the star of this nine-piece ensemble's first recording. Standout interpretations include "Perdido" with under-the-radar singer Nancy Reed floating easily above the fleet-fingered musicians and a seamless handoff between trumpeter Mark McGowan and tenor saxist Virginia Mayhew. A well-executed update of Ellington's music. Renma) Around 2004, Duke Ellington's eldest grandson, guitarist Edward Kennedy Ellington II founded this cover band.

Duke Ellington Legacy Thank You, Uncle Edward Renma 2008. Duke Ellington's half-century of commercial recordings provides a ready comparison for any jazz group that chooses to explore his music. Numerous CDs of previously unissued live recordings by Duke Ellington have turned up since his death in 1974. The song selection on Thank You Uncle Edward is a good mix of repertoire from several different decades. Mayhew devours the sauntering "Pretty Woman" and wails in the deliberate AfroCuban treatment of "In a Sentimental Mood," the latter taken far from its lush ballad roots. Simmons' subtle piano solo opens "Isfahan" though it turns strident as McGowan takes over.
