Satin Doll - Jazz Standard
In early 1953 Duke Ellington left Columbia Records and signed a major contract with Capitol Records. On April 6, he held the first recording session, which included “Satin Doll,” “Without A Song,” and “Cocktails For Two.” It appears that Ellington originally wrote the melody for 'Satin Doll' and Billy Strayhorn wrote the lyrics, but these were not considered commercially viable. Five years later Johnny Mercer, co-founder of Capitol Records, wrote a new letter, which is what is known today and is unanimously praised by critics.
It is unknown to whom the name 'Satin Doll' refers. Some say that it is Strayhorn's mother, while others, such as Mercer Ellington, suspect that the mysterious woman is Edna, Duke's wife, who, for her part, always claimed that she was the recipient of the song.
In 1969, pianist Earl Hines placed an ad in Downbeat magazine wishing Duke Ellington a happy seventieth birthday, but in small print he added: remember I wrote 'Satin Doll'.
