A Satchel Full Of Satch - Louis Armstrong (CD)

This CD features three exceptional and rare sessions by Louis Armstrong. The man was jazz and is jazz. He transcended from jazz to popular mainstream music. So it's nice to hear music from the great man that you won't have heard before, as these sides have not been released commercially until now. The first session is from the 30s and this is a marvellous airshot featuring an incredible all-star band featuring Louis and Fats Waller together for their only live collaboration. The second session is from the 40s and is a live performance from the Nice Jazz Festival by the original Armstrong All-Stars. The third session is from the 50s and was performed at New York's famous Basin Street East Nightclub where the band was having a fabulous night and the music really swings!PERSONNEL Louis Armstrong - Jack Teagarden - Trummy Young - Barney Bigard - Edmond Hall - Bud Freeman - Fats Waller - Earl Hines - Billy Kyle - Red Callendar - Arvell Shaw - Al Casey - Slick Jones - Sidney Catlett - Barrett Deems - Velma Middleton.
