    What a great legend. Louis Armstrong was an American trumpeter & vocalist going back to the 20's-60's. His career spanned five decades & he is considered one of the most influential figures in jazz. He was known for his gravelly raspy deep voice & he was good at scat singing. Love his version of "Hello Dolly" from the movie with the same name starring Barbra Streisand in 1969.

      Yes, a trumpet player first, he also sang, and obviously his trumpet playing taught him good breath control, which helps singers.

      Yeah, Armstrong didn’t even start singing until later in his career. He must have been in his 50s when he recorded this song and this is peak Louis vocals IMO.

    Wait until youhear him play the trumpet!! Louis Satchmo" Armstrong is a legend and so much more than just this one song. An original American jazz legend and pop music, known throughout the world from his tours of Europe, was a street kid in New Orleans Louisiana USA. His career spanned from about 1920 to his death in 1971. His records from the 1920's on are well known inWurope as well as the USA here. I'm a retired music teacher, I played trumpet, Louis was one of my idols. Try his Hot Five and Hot Seven Band recordings of the 1920's. He helped revolutionize jazz music and popular music on radio, and movie appearance and TV and endless touring with live appearanaces. He had to fight racism all his life...I loved the guy, he was great and had a wonderful personality and sense of humor. In May 1964 he even knocked the Beatles off of the #1 spot with his hit record "Hello Dolly." There are hundreds of videos of film and TV out there on youtube. there is a famous huge statue of him in his home town, in a park, in New Orleans.

    Armstrong’s legacy is his immense impact on mid-twentieth century music. His playing and phrasing was so strong and unique almost every musician that heard him tried to emulate him. He brought blues to jazz and brought melody to jazz improvisation, to big band phrasing. From New Orleans in the 1920s, to Chicago in the thirties, and from New York to the world, he left big honkin’ footprints.

    Although this isn't jazz, Louis Armstrong, "Pops," was a great trumpet player & giant innovator in the jazz world. This recording of Louis Armstrong was made after a serious injury to his lip permanently & seriously impaired his ability to play jazz on his trumpet. Thus, what can't be realized here is that he was, more than any other individual, the godfather of jazz, especially in the Big Band and Bebop Jazz eras, as documented in Ken Burns' excellent and best documentary ever about jazz.

    Ms. B, Louis is largely remembered today as a middle aged pop singer. But he was primarily a jazz musician. Please check out his instrumentals. Some of my favorites are Muskrat Ramble, Struttin' With Some Barbeque, West End Blues, and Mahogany Hall Stomp. BTW, his 1964 rendition of Hello Dolly knocked the Beatles out of first place on the charts!

    Ah, Louis was a Treasure for sure, Biss. If you get a chance you should treat yourself to one of his duets with Ella Fitzgerald, another jazz legend from back in the day. I think they recorded two LP's of duets together. Pick any one, it doesn't matter which. They are all magical. Oh, and also listen to his trumpet playing when you get a chance. That is actually what he was most famous for. Thanks for sharing this one. ❤

    Dear, Mr. Louis Armstrong grew up on the streets begging. To safe his money, he put his in his mouth, they called him Sachets Mouth, later shortended into Sachmo. He was such a nice human, even when he knew he would die of cancer, he was always friendly and smiled. As some people used to say, he was "good people".
    Be safe, Dear.

    Louis Armstrong is the reason I took up the trumpet when I was a kid. I heard him on the radio, and I was hooked. His singing was great, but first and foremost, he was a brilliant trumpet player, and his musical phrasing was extremely influential. Check out any of his recordings with "The Hot Five". That was his band back in the 1920's.

    Lovely song. One of my late dads favourites, who died when I was only a few month old. He had those old reel2reel tapes where he used to record stuff from the radio back in the 60s, and my mum playing those tapes was probably the most emotional connection I had with my dad. And it's probably the reason why I always had a sweet spot for jazz, even though that was nothing you would listen to as a kid and a teen in the 70s and 80s.

    Mr. Armstrong recorded songs that have been inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame dating from 1925 through 1967. This is the one from 1967. Finding his prime is going to be hard to do. He was basically in his prime for over 40 years. He at least deserves to be a prominent part in any discussion of "who is America's greatest musician?"

  • @pcoleman1971
    @pcoleman1971 День тому

    He is a legendary trumpist, so many of his greatest works are jazz instrumental songs. However, here are some Louis Armstrong songs with vocals for you to consider, "When It's Sleepy Time Down South", "Hello Dolly", "Ain't Misbehavin", "Jeepers Creepers". Then there are the fantastic duets with fellow-legend Ella Fitzgerald, such as "Autumn in New York". Suffice to say, you can't go wrong with The Great Satchmo.

    We have all the time in the world. Recorded for the James Bond film On Her Majesty's Secret Service very shortly before he died. Being the consummate professional he didn't turn down the request and it was written somewhere that the Bond producers were unaware he was in poor health when they made the request, but he flew over to the UK and recorded it and with John Barry's musical arrangement it is a beautiful piece of work.
    However, as mentioned by some already, in his prime he was a jazz trumpet player - hence the presence of the trumpet you see in the wide shot of this performance just before the camera cuts to the closer shot.

    There was a really good documentary about him on NPR back in the 90s. He had an early tape recorder at his house apparently, and would record phone conversations. They were finding these conversations with some guy where he was saying he needed to come over and pick up some sheet music. Then, at one point, before going on a European tour he was telling the guy he needed to come pick up a lot of sheet music. Eventually, they figured out 'sheet music' was code for weed.
