Satchmo's contribution to modern music & pop culture is legendary. He was a great trumpeteer & influential jazz singer. He was already 63 years old when he had his first and only #1 hit "Hello Dolly". He is also believed to have started what's known as scatting. The story is during the recording of "Heebie Jeebies" (the last track in this collection) the sheet music fell to the floor so he just started vocalizing without using actual words.
The set starts with his last and probably most popular hit "What A Wonderful World" which didn't become a hit until 1988, almost 17 years after his passing. The rest of the collection runs in reverse chronological order spanning four decades down to his years with the Hot Five and Hot Seven. There are also collaborations with Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Bing Crosby, Louis Jordan, and Billie Holiday. There's one track previously unreleased in the US: "St. Louis Blues".
If you're new to Satchmo, then you found a great place to start. Even if you may have other collections from him, this is still highly recommended. It's just a great listen.
I love Louis Armstrong's early songs and his most popular songs. This album includes all the must-have songs of any Louis Armstrong fan while not over-lapping those great old 1920's and 1930's songs I have already. (Next up on my collection is the 1940's box-set)
I love every track on these two CDs. If you buy this item you will NOT be disappointed. I don't know why this set was not included in a Louis Armstrong collecter guide I read, because this is a one-stop shop for all of his best songs. If you don't own any Louis Armstrong songs, this is an excellent place to start as well. Just don't stop here, keep collecting! Everything Armstrong made is "Gold" so far that I can tell.
Excellent, wonderful just so smooth and amber - this is a must have addition to any music library
First CD of the set was very good the second wasn't as good. I really enjoy Louis Armstrong but he has better CDs
Solid gold!! This is one of the best CDs that I have with Louis Armstrong. Would recommend this highly for jazz lovers.
