Ella Fitzgerald was an American singer, songwriter, and composer, sometimes referred to as the "First Lady of Song," "Queen of Jazz," and "Lady Ella." She was noted for her purity of tone, impeccable diction, phrasing, timing, intonation, absolute pitch, and a "horn-like" improvisational ability, particularly in her scat singing. (I Love You) For Sentimental Reasons is a song written by Ivory "Deek" Watson, founding member of the Ink Spots and of the Brown Dots, and William "Pat" Best, founding member of the Four Tunes. This version, by Fitzgerald and The Delta Rhythm Boys, reached the number 8 spot in the charts in 1947. This is a 1954 release of this single, and it is in Very Good Plus condition.
