About 1961, my husband was a student, 'Satchmo', his band and Velma were in Utah. I got Velma's autograph and she asked if I had Louis' yet. I told her 'Not yet!" On his break we went and saw his family in the back, he was so gracious, spoke briefly with us, gave me his autograph - I'll never forget!!! Perfect evening of listening, dancing until it was over Something I'll never forget - we still have the hanky and the memory. Thank you Louis 'Satchmo' Armstrong, kind man.
The absolute definitive version and a live recording masterpiece. Velma and Louis singing "Baby, It's Cold Outside". The warmth and joy just crackles away through the song.
you probably dont give a shit but does anybody know a tool to get back into an instagram account?? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can give me!
@Zachary Caspian thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
This is so dope!! I just closed my eyes while listening and I was immediately transported to that time and I imagined I was in the crowd and was laughing along with the crowd in awe of the chemistry they had...this was 5 minutes of just forgetting the world we live in existed!
I imagine Velma and Louis are trying really hard not to burst out laughter, cause this very sweet and charming. Louis voice makes this so fun and all his little quips are perfect in my opinion. Merry Christmas everybody!! ( even though its late august right now.)
What is unfortunate is that it *IS* all in the tone and inflection - this makes it so clear that it is friendly banter and flirtation nothing more :) Pure fun and enjoyment.
Ooohh yyes!!!!!! timeless and also a spontaneous performance of two of the biggest!!! tears and joy in the better way. Don't ask that. Always will be there some body listening this beautiful songs
So back when I lived in Detroit, there use to be the jazz festival(not sure if they still have it) legit the music I grew on was both classic hip-hop and jazz.
This is a great version of this song, so funny without trying, so much left unsaid. Velma and Louis. Do you think they got Thelma and Louise from them?
This evening has been... It ain't even started yet! X'D I love this! I have a 4 CD mix of the greatest big band songs, and this track is part of that mix. I friggin' love the songs from that time. I only wish I was alive in those days, just to see these two sing this song together! ^_^
The BEST version of this song ever. This is the true spirit of this song. Two friends sharing a fun moment that lasts a lifetime.
Nothing beats this. Her voice with pops. Nothing better
Absolutely. Delughtful! And I listened to 6 before this!

How could you not love Louis Armstrong! !!!! 💓💓💓
She lasted SO long without cracking up. I would have died of laughter in the first minute.
Jacey Jacobs I so wish they’d filmed this! 😎

Which is why I love when people arrange songs and cover... like Moon River. I have about 20 versions! =)
Ray Charles and Betty Carter's version is pretty epic too

My favorite version. It just doesn't get any more genuine.

Beautiful rendition by amazing, artists. I've never heard this version, now a favorite. ❤😎🙌
This seems so wonderfully improv'd. I LOVE IT. THEY SEEM LIKE THEY'RE HAVING A LOT OF FUN.
I've never heard this song performed with so much swag!
trinaboo85 you should watch some Nina Simone vids. Swag City.
Incredible moment. This is history at its finest. These are the greats I like to think of when I think of American music history.
I imagine Velma and Louis are trying really hard not to burst out laughter, cause this very sweet and charming. Louis voice makes this so fun and all his little quips are perfect in my opinion. Merry Christmas everybody!! ( even though its late august right now.)
First time I have ever heard this version and it is now my absolute favorite! Love it!!!
This is freaking hilarious. By far the best version!!
Original is always the best. ;)

+Desirae Schwertel I'm tied between this and the 1949 with June Carter...and Homer and jethro
it is the best versión, no doubt!
perfect... just wonderful
I love this!
I needed to smile today, and this is just what I needed.
What is unfortunate is that it *IS* all in the tone and inflection - this makes it so clear that it is friendly banter and flirtation nothing more :) Pure fun and enjoyment.
Some people aren't happy until they make others around them as MISERABLE/COLD/LONELY as they are aka "Pity Party!"
Well said. This is by far my favourite version of it EVER!!
Louis' opening remark "No potatoes" is a reference to Fats Waller's song "All that Meat and No Potatoes."
Joe Carbery great-thanks!
I love this version. Live recordings are the best!
Love it! Take another drink of wine maybe you'll change your mind.
Best version ever! Loved Louis.
"You stay here three more days and go on home to your people..." lmao
Louis, Velma, Trummy Young (tb), Edmond Hall (cl), Billy Kyle (p), William Girsback aka Squire Gersh (b), Barrett Deems (dr). September 7th, 1957, Orpheum Theater, Seattle, WA.
Ultra talented and charming!!! Satchmo was already a welcome legend when I was born a long assed time ago!!!
Before Rudolph!!!

Wish there was video of this.
He is a natural comedian and in this song he sounds SO much like the boy from the 9th Ward back home. He is New Orleans' native son and we love him.
Well said. You have nailed it.
This is the best version of this song IMO
Love this song!
I remember discovering this song on BearShare.. or was it LimeWire.. 🤔
And have loved it ever since!

"No Potatoes"
-Louis Armstrong
Satch mo gives me sooooooo much life!!! xxco
just
Greatest version ever!!!
So true
I have always thought so, they playfully act, flirt as they enact the roles in the story.
I agree! Playful flirtation, she is playing hard to get and he is enjoying the chase! And their chemistry is amazing!
Great for a good laugh but I would put it in a playlist💀
love love love it!!!!
Thanks for posting this! I love Velma MIddleton! She could really can dance too - check out her & Louie in Swinging on Nothing
So back when I lived in Detroit, there use to be the jazz festival(not sure if they still have it) legit the music I grew on was both classic hip-hop and jazz.
ConorAZ they still do
This is great!
Simpaticissimi insieme. Pura magia.
Velma was always the female singer that Louis like working with best!
WOW!!! WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN THERE!!!!
Micah Victory same and noice pfp btw
Thank you!
This is a great version of this song, so funny without trying, so much left unsaid.
Velma and Louis.
Do you think they got Thelma and Louise from them?
Not sure it gets more perfect than this.
Love it! ;-)
Merry Christmas! 2018 and this song is being banned on the radio. One of my all time favorites
I used to have this exact version on CD and it is so awesome
Nothing wrong with this song, just 2 consenting adults being together.
Velma is killing it
