   Mikalar says:With history having proved Ellington right, the AJO could relax and revel in his humor -- like all of Ellington's music, Black, Brown and Beige laughs when it isn't crying. The title alone ridicules the idea of the ghetto pecking order, and he has fun with it, like Cecil B. DeMille at once condemning and glorifying ancient Roman excesses.
