简介: Louis Armstrong's concert at Symphony Hall with hisAll-Starsin 1947 was a major success, featuring the trumpeter with vocalist/trombonistJack Teagarden, clarinetistBarney Bigard, pianistDick Cary, bassistArvell Shaw, and drummerBig Sid Catlettin particularly inspired form. This single CD reissues 15 of the 18 selections from the earlier two-LP set, dropping "How High the Moon" (which was mostly a bass solo), singerVelma Middleton's feature on "I Cried for You," and (most regrettably) a definitive comedy vocal duet byMiddletonand Armstrong on "That's My Desire." Otherwise, the music (whose order has been partly shuffled around without any explanation) is intact. Highlights include Satch's superb vocal on "Black and Blue," heated jams on "Royal Garden Blues," "Muskrat Ramble," and "High Society," andTeagarden's feature on "Lover Man." Joyous music.
