''Duke Ellington at Fargo, 1940 Live'' is the second live and studio album featuring the American jazz orchestra of Duke Ellington of a 1940 recording of the band performing at a dance in Fargo, North Dakota in the United States. It is considered one of the most significant of the Ellington concerts which survive as a recording. ==Background== In 1939, two cooperative extension service workers and former South Dakota State College students, Jack Towers and Richard Burris, sought permission from the William Morris Agency representing Duke Ellington to record an upcoming concert in Fargo, North Dakota.〔Martin Fredricks. (The Duke was Here )". ''NDSU Magazine''. Fall 2001. Retrieved 1 January 2011.〕 Permission was granted to the two Ellington fans provided they receive permission from Ellington and the venue's manager before the show.〔 The show was held on 7 November 1940 at the Crystal Ballroom on the second floor of the Fargo City Auditorium at the corner of First Avenue South and Broadway.〔 (The building was demolished in 1962).〔 The concert was a dance, a normal venue for jazz bands at that time but an unusual setting for a live recording, most of which would have been made of concerts, nightclubs, or radio broadcasts.〔Whitney Balliett. ''(Collected Works: A Journal of Jazz 1954-2001 )''. St. Martin's Griffin, 2002. p.543.〕 The Crystal Ballroom featured a glass ball two feet in diameter hanging from the ceiling that reflected the dancehall's lights.〔
