Duke Ellington - Stormy Weather Columbia

Sorry no scan for this one, But its from a later Columbia Pressing (I think)

I first heard this take on a newish Cd a few years ago, it was flat and lifeless with all the "music" crushed from the waxing to make it more "commercial" to modern ears. So i was pleasantly surprised to hear this 78.

Ok there is a fair bit of surface on my pressing Id say someone like myself a few generations ago like the arrangement as well. But unlike the CD version this one's got soul!
