Artist:Louis Armstrong
Song:West End Blues
Album:This Is Jazz #1
Of course even non jazz fans know about Louis Armstrong as one of the most important figures in jazz history. This song is from his groups from the 20s. I have the complete 4CD Hot Fives & Hot Sevens box set.
Latin jazz percussion legend Ray Baretto died yesterday at age 76. Ray started his career with Tito Puente and went on to be one of the great innovators of jazz percussion. Condolences to his family.
