Louis Armstrong - Saint Louis Blues (1929) [Digitally Remastered]

Classic Mood Experience The best masterpieces ever recorded in the music history.
Louis Armstrong (August 4, 1901 -- July 6, 1971), nicknamed Satchmo or Pops, was an American jazz trumpeter and singer from New Orleans, Louisiana.
Coming to prominence in the 1920s as an "inventive" trumpet and cornet player, Armstrong was a foundational influence in jazz, shifting the focus of the music from collective improvisation to solo performance. With his instantly-recognizable gravelly voice, Armstrong was also an influential singer, demonstrating great dexterity as an improviser, bending the lyrics and melody of a song for expressive purposes. He was also skilled at scat singing (vocalizing using sounds and syllables instead of actual lyrics).

No one in our family listened to jazz. I was the first at the age of 14, and this was the first song I heard that got me excited for all kinds of jazz.

I have lost count of the times I have listened to this astonishing recording. Taylor, Beyoncé, and your contemporaries.. you really need to have a listen.

From West End Blues to St. Louis Blues to You Rascal You is this not enough to have completely refined modern music?

Hace tiempo que me di cuenta de que cualquier musico de hoy en día viene de Louis Armstrong, voy a poner 3 ejemplos:
*bb king_su estilo en parte viene de louis jordan, evidentemente jordan viene de armstrong
*nat king cole _se inspira en earl hines, earl grabo west end blues con armstrong
*benny more_no es jazz, no es americano, pero le encantaba benny goodman, esta claro que benny goodman escucho a louis...
En fin, Dios bendiga a Louis Armstrong

[Firebrand]

Starting at 1.05 Armstrong sings with what sounds like Henry Red Allen on trumpet; can anyone confirm that?
One of the finest jazz tracks ever with peerless Armstrong at his peak.
