Billie Holiday & Louis Armstrong - New Orleans 

Right on brother 🌹

So true, and Billy's voice always gives me goose bumps. Heaven on Earth💜

u would not think amstrong could play for another artist. well, what a giant, great singer but will play sax for billie holliday

@@samuelmuiruri4704 Sax?...time for some homework. Louis Armstrong is widely acknowledged as the greatest trumpet player in the history of jazz.

@@loilt5091 my bad, i stand corrected.

@@loilt5091 he’s my favorite but definitive best is a stretch when you consider people like miles Davis and John Coltrane

@@rexstil Best❓ Best what...technical chops, groundbreaking virtuosity, a game changing, genre defining genius, a charming, heart warming icon. Or the FATHER of it all, even before Duke...the man who laid it all out there, setting the standard & example for everybody. Even the great Miles Davis admitted that Louis said it ALL, before any of us! Scholarly, former young lions like Wynton know the score...he'll tell you who The Man is. Sure, Trane's got a few of those covered and then there's Diz's blinding, Be-Bop mastery, bringing the Latin connection & so many other greats, but when the dust finally settles, there's only one. The general public mostly know him as the gravelly voiced charmer, but his horn is the beacon on the battlefront, that blazed through the frontier and eras...from it's Storyville birthplace and Buddy Bolden, past King Oliver, to New York & the World! 🌐

I think of beignets 😋😋

Tallulah Bankhead was obsessed with her as well Billie holiday was fine as hell

Hello Leslie, how long have you been hearing this song now?

@@tylerjakes1827 I have listened to this song since 1987 when i was 11. My old English teacher used to play her songs on an old record player when we sat in his room during wet lunch breaks. Loved her ever since

Well I think Ella Fitzgerald is right along side of her. Love both, I love to listen to Miles Davis but he can't hold a candle to Louis.

@@donnalayton6876I got it,Louis,Miles and then WYNTON,but,Al HITT,Maynard,Charlie Shavers,And I can’t think of the Trumpeter that died young

FATS NAVARRO AND LEE Morgan

@@jonathantaylor6596 And don't forget Bunny Berigan.

You’re so right. I stop in my tracks when I hear her beautiful voice. I’m filled with emotion when she sings. No one like her, for me 🤩

do you know the title of this movie

But they selected Trump again, didn't they?

They were strong and brave...and talented. I remember an interview with Lionel Hampton where the interviewer asked him wasn't it awful that he had to stay in a black hotel when the rest of Benny Goodman's orchestra didn't. He just smiled and said, "You don't understand, that's just the way it was back then." I realize it's easy for it to seem like I'm downplaying it, because I was born white and always will be, but sometimes I think we dwell too much on the faults of the past when we should just be grateful for the music. I'm grateful for the music of the all black orchestras like Count Basie and Duke Ellington. Not because of the segregation, but because of the music those artists produced.

@@TheDrummer51 Yeah you just down played the hell out of that smh.

I hear you, JR. I think I could have worded that differently. It took me most of my life to realize I can't put myself in a black man's shoes. In the nineties I remember having dinner with a friend in Dallas, visited with he and his family, and when I went out the front door I realized....it really hit me....that I was white. That what my friend and his family still faced every day, I could just get in my car and drive away from. But I still dream that we can get to Dr King's dream, where we see each other's character, and not the color of our skin.

You went to heaven poor lady day

Hello there. Thanks for the lo down on who’s who. A lotta Talent.

You had a great mentor

That’s a great story of good memories

Bless your heart,and thanks for the memories

I could say the same thing for the oldies who don’t know recent bands or singers, artists. Stop with this speech, show the young lads this stuff then. I discover it on my own and I’m sixteen years old, trust me a lot of people my age know this stuff. And to the other ones who don’t know it then it’s their problem, start an instagram account to reach out.

@@jules8159 I know some of the more up to date . I don't listen to music like I use to. When my daughters were home , it was different of course. Have a good day.😊

Hello Cherry, how long have you been hearing this song now?

Same ❤

Yes, MAGIC. I especially like ‘The Man I Love’ …

All her life was traumatic, even while dying she was persecuted and chained to a hospital bed.

Amen

…but lives on forever 🙏🏻

💔Billie💔

There newer be on other like her

all angels go to heaven

@Dr. killpatient bullshit. You must not be black. Do ya studies

@Dr. killpatient Unfortunately you are correct I studied who I idolize for years almost turn my living room to a shrine with themes from The Lady but everyone really hates truth so by the end of the rabbit hole Truth be told truly a most talented fallen angel.

Roland Scialom in her autobiography I think she says that they performed together several times , as well as this movie they were in together

Arturo de Cordova. Is the guy who greets the blond at the end of the clip. Just the greatest mexican actor ever.

What is the title of this movie?

Hello Claudia, How are you doing?

Amen!

....thanks to the man....playing the trumpet alongside her....she idolized him....

@@chevekadouglas2925 You are Right I love are History too. So rich and exciting / It's the blood which flows threw are Veins

I agree.

Well let's just worship God and adore what he has created

true Royalty.

Doesn't get any better than Louis Armstrong on the trumpet... It just doesn't!

Sade would have something to say about that

Give me Ella ANY day...

@@PMKehoe or Sarah Vaughn

@@PMKehoe We’ll left her for you let us enjoy this

Great ! But you forgot Louis Armstrong, Mahalia Jackson, Nat King Cole, Ray Charles, among others, in your list.

@@bessjazz Fair, difficult to squeeze them all into one list! Although, given the content of the video, it's pretty heinous that I forgot Satchmo himself. I now realise I also forgot James Brown.

Hello Anna, How are you doing?

If you are referring to the clip that’s not Tallulah Bankhead…. But I am sure that Miss Bankhead and Ladyday shared many looks together….

Hello, how long have you been hearing this song now?

Thanks, Henry, for the compliment. Check out my original music on RU-vid so that I can keep the smile on my face. Take care!

Sometimes I'm sometime struck by how Portuguese speakers, when they make a comment on RU-vid in their first language, are really only understood by people from Brazil (and 12m elsewhere in the world). It has to suck, at least a little bit, to speak the only language of the former world powers that's understood by so very few people. While I'd love to speak a few languages fluently, I'm glad my first language is understood by 75%+ of the total population of people in this world.

Music has yet to evolve past Louis Armstrong. He is a fundamental part of modern day music. To the point where I doubt any modern day musician isn’t influenced by him directly or indirectly. It’s almost a GUARANTEE that their influences involved Pops. Example-Louis Armstrong> John Entwhistle > Flea.

Valerie Brown . I’ll share a tissue with you .

@Robin D Hello Robin, how long have you been hearing this song now?

Babette Ory wow. just wow. royal lineage!

I just discovered your father today when I bought five of his records at an estate sale. Wonderful music, I know you're very proud of his art.
