A Jazz Master's Record of Travel and Music
This was produced as the soundtrack for the film "Satchmo the Great," and is a documentary work consisting of Armstrong's performance and narration.
This documentary work features Louis Armstrong discussing his career and musical philosophy. Compiled to accompany the film, it features a structure that intertwines performance and narration. His trumpet playing has reached a mature stage, and improvisation and lyricism blend effortlessly. More than just a live recording, it has the depth of a self-reminiscence set against the backdrop of American music history. It is an important document that captures Armstrong as an artist and a person.
