…and His Mother Called Him Bill

Album by Duke Ellington and His Orchestra

...And His Mother Called Him Bill is a studio album by Duke Ellington and His Orchestra, released in 1967. Musically, it is rooted in big-band jazz with lush orchestral arranging, subdued solos, lyrical balladry and subtle rhythmic drive, and it has a reflective role in Ellington's late career as a tribute to his longtime collaborator.
