Louis Armstrong - Golden Hits (Red Vinyl)

In the year 1900 a musical genius was born in New Orleans. This man who has been aptly described as ‘The man who revolutionised Jazz’ is of course the King of the trumpet Louis Armstrong. Perhaps another Jazz great Duke Ellington sums it all up best when he said: “Louis Armstrong is, of course, the man who, when heard playing trumpet, inspired thousands to play like him. Hundreds of thousands more were simply inspired to play the same instrument he played and who knows how many millions just loved to listen to him? Louis Armstrong is what I call an American standard, an American Original.”
