Billie Holiday & Louis Armstrong - Farewell to Storyville

- It's a fragment of the film "New Orleans", directed by Arthur Lubin in 1947. This is the saddest part of the film, in my opinion, because everybody is obliged to leave the city they learnt to call a home and that's what this song tell us about.
how many people would like the chance to tell Miss Billie Holiday how wonderful she was and to take some of the pain she felt (although I do think she had some good times as well as bad) away . There are times when I dont listen to her for a while then something brings me back and I am refreshed by her artistry - beauty and style . Orginality that we dont always see or appreciate
Billie Holiday was one of the best
she was so beautiful too
She is the Queen!
billie holiday is such a timeless figure, such a beautiful, classy woman
This movie changed my live forever. It was in 1948. I wandered into the matinee showing. At 14, I had discovered Satchmo, Billie and all the other greats. This music has remained a part of my life ever since. Wherever my travels have taken me, I look for New Orleans Jazz. Thank you so much for posting,
Good memories
Ah, a depression baby.
You're about my Mom's age. Be blessed ❤
You'll never hear somebody sound so melancholy and yet so sweet at the same time. She always makes my eyes well up and my mind drift. I listen to her when i've got the blues and i always find that i feel much better after as if the sound of her voice soaks up others pain.
She's beautiful this song is beautiful i've never heard this one b4.
I just saw this movie for the first time last night! And I was born and raised in New Orleans! It was really fun! I love the white girl who can't stay away from the blues club cuz she can feel it. And she was driven around Basin Street to show how dicey the area was. Well I work on Bourbon Street, and I sure wish we could have Storyville back like it was in the old days!
I first heard Billie when I was 16...I think I would have married her sight unseen and loved her forever just for what I heard in her beautiful voice! I am still so enamored!
so very pleased to find this fragment of film: terence!
Ничего не может быть лучше этого дуэта для тех,кто любит классический джаз и его исполнителей !!!Сергей из Петербурга.
Goosebump's,BRAVO,BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!
I love Billie Holiday and Louis Armstrong
Me 2
I have seen this movie. It is great. One of the very best about New Orleans. Of course anything with Louis Armstrong and Billie Holliday has to be good. Another good movie about Storyville is PRETTY BABY with Brooke Sheilds.
Wow, I just noticed how good Billie is in this. She looks amazing, and performs even better. To think she shad such a rough life.
God bless New Orleans. The city that invented cool.....Thanks Louis & Billie
is there anyone ever going to be like Billie?
i can see why people cant enjoy her singing(i WAS one of them).i think you really have to listen to her sing,not just watch.she was awsome if you just close your eyes,she kinda puts you the listener in her shoes,thats what makes her so great rip billie.
I never saw this video, before!!
Billie & Louis sound great together!!
Excellent Jazz Singer !!!!!!
Very nice, old school second line. I haven't seen this movie yet,but it just moved to the top of my list.
What a fox...Billie Holiday looks so fine...it's sad to see her in the later years before her death...
Its great to see videos of Billie Holiday performing, cos before i had only heard her sing on CD's i have of her.
What JOY! Lady Day & Satchmo together!
thanks for sharing....i was not aware of Storyville my father always talk about New Orleans and the quarters.
Wow, New Orleans....the past was as sad as now, after Katrina! :( Fantastic video peagahairy, Thank you for posting it!!!

Thanks for posting this, there so many great black lady blues-jazz singers including Billie Holiday such as Ma Rainey, Besse Smith, Alberta Hunter, Aretha Franklin...to name only a few. This is my favourite type of music. :-)
yeah man i'm 17 i've loved this music since i was a little kindergarten baby
Billie rules!!!
desde Mexico, simplemente maravilloso
"You can do it, and make it good!" :)
The Trombone player is big chief Russell Moore from Sacaton Arizona. They go out of their way to make sure we don't see too much of him. at 1:50 he is hidden by a pole. You do get a couple of glimpses of him starting at 4:24 Louis was a Big supporter of Russell.
... and Billie looks so damn gorgeous. Wonderful rarity. Thanks for sharing this.
JUST BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!! THANKS!!XX
brutal fantastico
one of the few films where you will see Mr. Armstrong talking!!!! classic! Especially wih Ms. Holliday! thanks for the post
Im falling in love jazz...
'tis better than most!
¡Cuánto talento junto!. ¡que maravilla!
Billie over the sky......
I cannot deal with how amazing this song makes me feel. How it's possible this hasn't got billions of views and gnam ' style does is beyond me.
Billie po prostu dla mnie GENIUSZ, co za głos i piękność oraz jak śpiewa to myślisz że tylko dla ciebie ❤😊🌷😅 tyle emocji w jej głosie!!! Ej piosenki pozostaną w naszej pamięci mim że upłynęło ponad 60 lat🥺
Thank you for the history lesson on storyville
Billie is glamor and sunshine 1934-1941, but no less expressive. By 1947 she's starting to take on a harder look along with a more sombre, blues-inflected elocution. It's important to hear Billie early, mid-career, and late career--not just late, when there was a note of ghoulish fascination about the self-destruction that was plainly visible.
Definition of class.
Wow I didnt know she was so beautiful
Thank you for posting! I love Billie. I don't know if it's just the scene, but before she gets up to sing, she looks really nervous...No problem once she starts though.
So, so amazing
precioius!
people were so much more alive before tv
MAGNIFIQUE
I grew up in New Orleans and have been away since 2001. I've got no plans to return, but that doesn't mean I don't look back with a wistful eye from time to time.
This is a touching tribute to Storyville. It used to be the prostitution district in New Orleans. The bloom and the decay of this area is wonderfully captured in the movie "Pretty Baby" by Louis Malle. Anyone who likes this Billie Holiday video might like this movie as well.
This thing is so good it makes my cry.
I also wish I was black and could sing like that.
Hey! Just noticed that Arturo de Córdoba is the gentleman on the balcony. He was a famous Mexican actor who started in a few Hollywood films. Love Billy and Sachmo. Thanks for posting this
Billie is such a beauty, I hope I can meet her soul one day, somehow in the afterlife, that far away dream.
Billie Holiday was tops regardless of what age one is. Check out others on swinginkatz
I GOTTA GET THIS MOVIE!
Me encanta esta música cuyas letras se refieren a su cultura e historia vívidas ese rítmo lastimero y a veces de alegría!!!! Realmente para contar!!❤❤❤
Muy bueno amigo, muchas gracias por compartir.
That ' s it !!!
Dear Raul/conejolua,
I LOVE YOU! You always know what to say and you bless everyone!

Merveilleux 😊😊😊
I love this so much. Thanks for uploading it.
Великолепный джаз!!❤️🌹
Really better than shaman?
Wow Joy IS every minute❤❤❤
I wish New Orleans would tear down the Municipal Auditorium and rebuild Storyville exactly as it was before the US Government forced them to tear it down prior to WWI. It is truly the birthplace of many American art forms and would be a huge tourist draw, especially if they legalized prostitution and marijuana like it was when it was open as a Red Light District.
Maybe bring back the look of the place and whatnot and maybe even marijuana, but prostitution??

It appears on New Orleans (Jazz Crusade JCCD-3043) which is the soundtrack of the movie, along with outtakes.
Thanks! Will do.
@davehutchinson67 amen and i hope they do listen to it that far down the road =)
New Orleans forever.
My bad, This Trombone player is Kid Ory Russell can be seen on the blues are Brewin from the same movie.
Surely they dine at the banquet table of THE IMMORTALS!
最高!!!

BEAUTIFUL...lol @ "what's it to ya, cop?"
I wish I lived in 1930s New Orleans
and was black
and could sing
Where the hell did you get this? Amazing.
Great video. Is this available on DVD? :-)
Storyville was the Red Light ( Colored/Black ) District of New Orleans. The madams were extremely wealthy and a myriad of work was available in Storyville.
Hey that was there video then!!
hehehe
cool
Iberville projects are still open.
Some of you obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Storyville was the legalized redlight district in New Orleans. Classy and elegant? hahaha.. you have no idea. Although I love the music, the setting and the people depicted here I just needed to set things straight.
😍😍
奇跡だなぁ🎵。😃
@hhold because we have everything now, we strive towards nothing
To all the people who hate New Orleans, you guys are just jealous. As monacobob said, we "invented cool"
what does billie holiday do for a living in that movie?
please answer if you know the answer! thank you.
Billie will always be Big, but the ugly truth that surrounds her and her peoples is so evident it overwhelms me, Dont you ever stop to think about the bullshit they were going through. sachmo always acted well but I know this is not what they liked doing. Music is all about vibes/vibrations. We could have had something great but i guess no one back then could write a descent script which involved black peoples.
and find a way to get around it. don't be fooled
@hhold This is a movie, not a documentary.
Upcoming album celebrating the music of Billie holiday, recorded live at 2015 Birmingham Jazz and Blues festival.
Heres a sneak preview of it - ua-cam.com/video/19aG1cC7TXw/v-deo.html
La cultura negra de la música derrumbó las barreras del racismo. Hay alguna mujer rubia y ojos celestes mejor que Billie Holiday?
nothing changes
what's the name of this move?
@EEE89
I have a wonderful life Triple "E". How 'bout you?
i think it changed a bit since those times lol.
i heared the black people have been managed out and their homes have been replaced by decadent tourist stuff.
Anyone know where I can find this song? I think the recording was destroyed.
O filme é ruim, mas as músicas excelentes!!!
