Louis Armstrong, is the beatles of jazz.Or are the Beatles, the louis Armstrong of Rock.

[Calsingen]

Sry, but that was quite a bad comparison, but what a heck, I see your point! ;D

[6x7045]

Of all the male jazz singers I know, I find Louis the one most pure, touching, swinging yet heartwarming and in many ways the most musical. Maybe this all is most in his scat singing.

[BlaxisDuende]

One of the Great Geniuses of the 20th century.

A true genius.

I was lucky my husband taped this off TV on his old beta machine. Don't know if you knew this or have heard it but a collector told me a guy named Tom Stewart recorded hundreds of hours of jazz live at clubs and off the radio on a wire recorder and his kids threw them all out after he died because they had no way to play them. The guys wire recorder had broken and he he threw it out years ago but he kept all the wire spools. He had live recordings of Louis, Duke, Basie no one else had.
