Simply Wonderful

"It's a marvellous version of the music of the film, and it contains a few really fine numbers. Maybe you'll think it's only a recording for children, but it isn't. It's full of colours from the Ellington palette. And is recorded in one of the best periods of Ellington, you'll find some of the Ellington Dream Team.
The super-fast supercalifragi... as you can imagine, is featuring the powerful Paul Gonsalves.
Two big ballad numbers "Feed the birds" and "Perfect Nanny" for the clarinets, Procope and Hamilton.
A really nice Chim Chimeney with the trio."
