(1957) |"Like Someone in Love" (1957) is an album by the American
jazz singerElla Fitzgerald , with a studio orchestra arranged and conducted byFrank DeVol . This album represents a fine example of Ella's singing from this period, recorded at the same time as her albums withLouis Armstrong .The album was also recorded in the midst of her epic 'Songbooks' project, celebrating the composers of the '
Great American Songbook ' and Broadway. The album features only four songs written by the composers featured in her 'Songbooks', instead concentrating on very famous ballads by lesser known writers. Some songs on the album were also recorded with Armstrong on the albums that they collaborated on from this period. The famous American saxophonistStan Getz is featured on four tracks, including "Midnight Sun" and "You're Blasé ".Track listing
