A musical rediscovery not only of historical weight, but with infinite swing and feeling: as a trumpeter and singer, Louis Armstrong has influenced American jazz and pop music more than any other artist before or since. In the summer of 1968 he travelled to London, just a few weeks after knocking the Beatles off the top spot in the British charts with "What A Wonderful World", and recorded in the BBC studios a performance full of vitality and infectious joy. He himself considered this recording to be one of the best of his entire career.
Five decades after his death, Verve is now releasing the recording under the title "Louis In London" for the first time in its entirety and carefully remastered on vinyl, CD and in digital form, accompanied by detailed liner notes by Armstrong biographer Ricky Riccardi. Here you can experience "Satchmo" in all his facets, with jazz classics such as "Indiana" and "When It's Sleepy Time Down South", his chart hit "What A Wonderful World" and versions of evergreens such as "Mack The Knife" or "The Bare Necessities" from Disney's "Jungle Book".
