The glowing story of 'Satchmo'the great jazz musician, Louis Armstrong.Louis Armstrong has been called the most important improviser in the history of jazz. Although his New Orleans neighborhood was poor in nearly everything else, it was rich in superb music. Young Louis took it all in, especially the cornet blowing of Joe 'King' Oliver. But after a run-in with the police, 11-year-old Louis was sent away to the Colored Waif's Home for Boys where he became a disciplined musician in the school's revered marching band.Ultimately, he was to travel the world from Chicago to Paris and would transform jazz through his improvised singing ('scatting') and masterful trumpet playing. He played with Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, and other jazz greats of his day. Armstrong was the first African-American man to host a national radio show, and the first jazz musiciain to write an autobiography.This is a joyful tribute to the virtuoso musician and buoyant personality who introduced much of the world to jazz.
