A 1979 LP of tracks cut for the PBS show For the Record. Both Ellises were profiled in books by Whitney Balliett, which reveal a pair of artists of remarkable eccentricity. Both were extremely talented, too; Anita unfortunately suffered from crippling stage fright, and made few recordings; this is my favorite, combining her powerful chops and marvelous interpretations with Larkins' unflagging sensitivity, talent, and nuance.
