The Columbia/RCA live package includes nearly 163 tracks of Pops' most popular songs along with many that are far less familiar; 75 tracks are being released for the first time. The set begins with 20 tracks from Armstrong's1947 concert at New York's Town Hall with his small group dubbed the All Stars: Jack Teagarden on trombone, clarinetist Peanuts Hucko, pianist Dick Cary, bassist Bob Haggart and two alternating drummers, George Wettling and "Big" Sid Catlett. Also included is Armstrong's 1947 Carnegie Hall concert, which sat improperly labeled in RCA's vaults for over half a century and is issued here for the very first time. Some 90 minutes of material was preserved—18 tracks, also featuring Teagarden, Cary and Catlett, but this time with Barney Bigard on clarinet, bassist Arvell Shaw and the vocalist Velma Middleton.

D'une musique de folklore afro-américaine enracinée dans le gospel et le blues traditionnel, Louis Armstrong a conçu un courant musical national et populaire à vocation internationale voire même universelle ! Son talent de trompettiste, son charisme, ses qualités d’entertainer et sa personnalité généreuse ont forgé sa renommée. Celle d’un géant. D’une légende allant bien au-delà des arts. Enraciné dans la tradition de New Orleans, Armstrong propulsera le soliste sur les sentiers de l’improvisation, épine dorsal du jazz à venir. Avec Charlie Parker et Duke Ellington, il formera la Sainte Trinité du jazz moderne.

Pink Floyd was an English rock band formed in 1965. With her music and the visual design of her records and stage performances, she created a new style. The unusual name goes back to the blues musicians Pink(ney) Anderson and Floyd Council, who were still alive at the time the band was founded.

Louis Armstrong Plays W. C. Handy is a 1954 studio release by Louis Armstrong and His All Stars, described by Allmusic as "Louis Armstrong's finest record of the 1950s" and "essential music for all serious jazz collections".

This very attractive four-CD box set has definitive liner notes from Dan Morgenstern, and draws its 81 selections from Louis Armstrong's prime period. Why then does it not receive the highest rating? Armstrong's immortal Hot Five and Hot Seven recordings, along with his early big band sides, had already been reissued complete, and in chronological order on seven Columbia CDs and his less interesting performances as an accompanist to various blues singers (some of which are on this set) have also been reissued in similar fashion.
