Subject: Who did Duke use as (ghost) arrangers?

Question
Thank you for your wonderful service.

I know of Luther Henderson and Gerald Wilson.   Any others you know of?

Alan in Atlanta

Answer
I don't know if you would call any arranger a ghost arranger most leaders would be only too pleased to receive arrangements if they were good enough. Apart from the two musicians you mention the only other one I can think of is Louie Belson [Skin Deep and Ting-a-Ling]. Sorry I can't be of more help.
