3. Duke Ellington was a jazz legend ! Numerous awards such as : “Grammy Awards’’. Mr. Ellington also wrote numerous songs for others! You already know you are a special talent when you have other artists such as: Jeep's Blues" for Johnny Hodges, "Concerto for Cootie" ("Do Nothing Till You Hear from Me") for Cootie Williams and "The Mooche" for Tricky Sam Nanton. I feel as if Mr. Ellington has paved the way for jazz as a whole! All being done between his age cycle of 30-70! For him to do that much work in the industry you have got to be a legend.
