Jazz
Three CD set. The albums featuring Louis Armstrong's collaborations with the Dukes of Dixieland were among the first stereo recordings to fully capture Louis' magic sound. He played wonderful trumpet and vocal solos on classic songs that weren't part of his usual repertoire, such as 'Dixie', 'New Orleans' and 'Sweet Georgia Brown', which he had never previously recorded. This collection contains the complete works of Louis and the Dukes, including both the master takes and all of the alternates. Half of this music appears here on CD for the first time ever. |
