I lost my copy of this years ago. but as soon as I'm asked about my all-time favourite tracks I hear it in my head.

[renhoek]

It must have been some experience to witness Louis Armstrong playing live, that audience is absolutely transfixed

[jorgecallico]

Incredible sound. I've never heard anyone else sound like him.

💘💘💘My dad would call up my mom on his luch break and play the trumpet to her.💘💘💘 This played the year I was born.

[BrandonSL]

I don't understand how the resolution is so good for something recorded in 1958.

[daltonvargas]

Finally found it, I was searching like crazy for this performance, one of his best.

[redflare]

By far an extraordinary performance by the best. :)

[alessandrovaccari]

Jazz is joy. It seems festival organizers and promoters have forgotten this today.

El verdadero Mesías de la humanidad, Satchmo ♥️

[Alffovinni]

Would love to see some interviews with some of the people who appeared in the audience shots. Or would love to know who they were. Facinating

Up The Lazy River - Hoagy Carmichael

Up a lazy river by the old mill run
The lazy, lazy river in the noon day sun
Linger in the shade of a kind old tree
Throw away your troubles
Dream a dream with me

Up a lazy river where the robin's song
Awakes the bright new morning
Where we can move along
Blue skies up above, everyone's in love
Up a lazy river, how happy you could be
Up a lazy river-er with me

Up a lazy river by the old mill run
The lazy, lazy river in the noon day sun
Linger in the shade of a kind old tree
Throw away your troubles
Dream a dream with me

Up a lazy river where the robin's song
Awakes the bright new mornin'
Where we can move along
Blue skies up above, everyone's in love
Up a lazy river, how happy you could be
Up a lazy river-er with me

Woh, up a lazy river by the o-old mill run
The lazy, lazy river in the non day sun
Linger in the shade of a kind old tree
Throw away your-our troubles
Dream a dream with me

Up a lazy river where the robin's song
Awakes the bright new morning
Where we can move along
Blue skies up above, everyone's in love
Up a lazy river, how happy you could be
Up a lazy river-er with me
Up a lazy river with me

A little scat from the Satchmo... ahhh yes.. ...!

[ItamarHaggaiMusic]

the close ups of the crowd are extremly awkward.
But still this is amazing

[ig]

What a cruel joke, in 1958 these people got these type of musicians, and in 2020 we got fucking Kanye West, 50 cents, etc, etc.

[vestibulate]

I love the music. But I can't stand looking at that crowd.

[andyfourme]

Is this another cut and paste job as the audience do not appear to react as if they were actually present at this Louis Armstrong performance. I have seen the same type of cutting and splicing on a Dinah Washington Newport jazz session.

[issuesandtissues]

Judging by the audience I'd say he was playing at an outdoor insane asylum

[mattthecat]

Why oh why did the director feel the need to keep cutting to stoned hipsters?
