@lamontlewis It was never "mandated" that a white musician play with black musicians in order for them to be on television. In fact it was frowned upon and seen as the end of a white musician's career if they were seen publicly playing or even recorded with a black band during this period. The white musicians that did play with black bands risked everything for the sake of music and helped break down the barriers of racism that society had created.

@massimo2ooo That's because at that time, it was mandated that the appearance of black musicians on television have a white musician in the group, who just stood there and pretended. This is how intense racism was. Except for Benny Goodman's open acceptance of Lionel Hampton, no white band was under such pressure to place a black musician in the band. Being muscians, this is what my parents had to put up with their entire careers. And you wonder why drugs were so prominent.

Holy crap, they can play. The bass solo is terrific.

My all time favorite Louis Armstong song! ( It was written by his second wife - the great Lil Hardin, who at one time played the piano for the Joe " King" Oliver band. It was there that they met in the early 1920s. Although the marriage did not last, they remained life long friends.) I hope you enjoy this as much as I do. DMM
