East St.Louis Toodle-Oo è un brano jazz del 1926 composto da Duke Ellington e Bubber Miley, registrato con vari titoli ed etichette tra il 1926 e il 1930. È una delle prime composizioni e uno dei principali esempi degli arrangiamenti jungle style di Duke Ellington.
Storia
La prima registrazione (Vocalion) rivela uno stile musicale unico, prontamente riconosciuto tale da Irving Mills, noto come "musica della giungla".[1] Mills offrì a Ellington la possibilità di registrare con l'importante etichetta Vocalion: in novembre incisero quattro facciate, tra cui St.Louis Toodle-Oo, che venne pubblicata. In breve tempo Duke Ellington si rivelò un serio concorrente "hot jazz" per la competitiva Manhattan e acquisì una considerevole notorietà.[2] La seconda registrazione (Victor) è una testimonianza del primo periodo di Ellington al Cotton Club.
