This Drive Archive CD features Chick Webb's Orchestra on two radio broadcasts performed shortly before the drummer passed away. Ella Fitzgerald takes vocals on six of the dozen selections, including a rollicking "Tain't What You Do," but it is the instrumentals that are of greatest interest, especially "Blue Room," "One O'Clock Jump" and "My Wild Irish Rose" (which has some exciting drum breaks from Webb).
