Louis Armstrong

Satch Plays Fats: The Music of Fats Waller





Thomas "Fats" Waller was a brilliant stride pianist and singer, and certainly the only jazz musician who could rival Louis Armstrong as an entertainer, communicating some of the larger-than-life vitality and humor that Armstrong possessed. Waller was also one of the first great songwriters of jazz, his phrasing perfectly mated to the music's rhythmic nuances. This Centennial edition of Satch Plays Fats begins with the nine tracks of Armstrong's 1955 LP devoted to some of Waller's best-known songs, from the drive of "I'm Crazy 'bout My Baby" and the smooth bounce of "Ain't Misbehavin'" to the moving pathos of "Black and Blue." It was one of the highlights of Armstrong's later career, directly comparable to another magnificent session devoted to a single songwriter, Louis Armstrong Plays W.C. Handy. Armstrong is joined by his regular All-Stars, the well-traveled group that matched his clarion trumpet with the vocal smears of trombonist Trummy Young and the woody, liquid clarinet of fellow New Orleans master Barney Bigard, all superbly supported by pianist Billy Kyle, bassist Arvell Shaw, and drummer Barrett Deems. --Stuart Broomer

Louis And The Good Book (1958)






Louis Armstrong liked to say that he was raised a Baptist, always wore a Star of David around his neck, and was friends with the Pope. In other words, Armstrong's religion was as hard to characterize in a single word as his music.
No jazz artist's music was as spiritually moving as Armstrong's but this classic 1958 LP was the only album he ever made that was specifically devoted to religious songs. The results are joyous, solemn, whimsical, even at times gently mocking -- but always upliftingly Satchmo.

Možda bude problema u raspakiranju zbog predugačkih imena pjesama. Ako tako bude, samo raspakirajte te pjesme pojedinačno.
It may be a problem in unpacking due the too long song names. If so be it, just unzip the songs individually.
