It’s incredible how Louise Armstrong speaks and sings. One and only one. Would you ever pass this world again to see and hear the beautiful things you created with your “What a Wonderful World”? You were just a genius …Sunny

I've always loved Louis Armstrong..he's such a jazz legend..but hearing him read this Christmas Classic just warmed my heart. .I agree with raymonko...It's simply smile-worthy hearing that beautiful raspy and rough voice as he says the words " heard (hoid), turning(toining), word (woid), encircled (encoicled).. Such a charming and warm man, he was!.He would have been the most wonderful symbol of Santa Clause..I like his voice even better than the "typical" Santa sound..

@ExodusPessoa he didn't invent jazz, but he changed it forever, he was the first musician to streamline soloing- before him it was all about collective improvisation, he broke that trend and basically invented the solo improvisation and that's what jazz has been about ever since- he is only more well known to the general public as a singer/entertainer, but his real contribution and genius was his mastery over the trumpet
