HOW MUSIC CHANGED, PART 13-11 – THE LEGACY OF LOUIS ARMSTRONG


PLAY THE SHOW

Our story picks up in 1935, as Louis completes an n extended working vacation in Europe. He returns to America only to find that his personal business is in a shambles, particularly as his management is concerned. Louis attempts to pick up the pieces, and finds himself with a new manager, on a new record label. Musically, he hits the cruise control button, which annoys critics but results in a catalog of consistently brilliant music.

Songs covered today include;

1) I’m In the Mood for Love

2) Got a Bran’ New Suit

3) Old Man Mose

4) Thanks a Million

5) Shoe Shine Boy

6) Solitude

7) I’m Putting All My Eggs in One Basket

8) Lyin’ To Myself

9) Ev’ntide

10) Swing That Music
