One of the thrills of my life was seeing him in 1961 at the Paper Mill Playhouse in Millburn, NJ with my father, a huge fan. I was 10 and a novice on the trumpet. We went backstage and hung with him for a while; i sat on his knee as they chatted, and he led me back to the end of the room where his trumpet sat in its case. I tooted a few notes and her roared in approval, a huge smile across his face. I still have the program he signed.
@@davidledford3522 Yes, same here. I was born 1953 and remember watching Satchmo on TV probably in the late 50's and feeling his soul even then. I love him.
I was singing this song in a blues pub in Gallway bay in 2008. A German couple visiting that night came to me and said it was that very song playing in a Paris night club 40 years before on that very same night, when he proposed to her and she accepted! As a result I got information from him as to how to find my long lost brother whom I had never met in all my 67 years! Since that night, I have found my brother and his family and we have been visiting each other. It was on the world BBC news. All because....I sang THAT song, on THAT night in THAT pub in Ireland! Peter Beschorner
that's the most random story I've ever heard in my life. he proposed to his now wife to a song about a dead person? then somehow you got info as to how to find your brother? and all of that happened in one day? wow

+Master Funk oh I feel you. His credits are endless - what about pioneering psychedelia? Cats like Jay are barely remembered let alone respected for their contributions. Hell, the younger cats barely know James Brown or Otis, so how they gonna dig any deeper? its up to us to keep it on the one, and tell em all about it.
+poppachubby chubby I'm with you fellas. The fact that Screamin' Jay Hawkins isn't in the R&R Hall of Fame makes me want to go burn the place down to the ground. It's downright unconscionable.
This was one of my Dads favourites, he used to tell the story of being a very young man and hearing this song played in some dive while he was on leave from the forces. He thought it was the best thing he'd ever heard, and it led to him being a life long Satchmo fan. We played this at his funeral too.
@@d.b.624 I'd say otherwise to your first point about the tone not fitting, the song is an old blues tune; it's written from the perspective of a downtrodden fella with not much to him in this world. He seemingly has had a rough go of it, and now his mistress just got sent to the undertaker; not many in that situation could hold themselves, but a common coping mechanism is to joke, provide black humor to lighten the mood of an otherwise desperate situation. In context, this works even more, since the singer is playing a street goon, he himself doesn't hold his life in high regard. He knows he's probably not long for this world either, and so while he's thinking about his own time, what else does his mind fly to but the looks, the appearance, the glamour he's never had. He wants to be presented in a certain way, a way that masks the deep sorrow inside, so that those around him will think he was a high-roller with not a care in the world. Straight-laced shoes, a box-backed coat, a genuine Stetson, and a twenty-dollar gold piece; these are probably extravagances he himself is not accustomed to, but he wants to be buried with them "so the boys will know I died, standing pat", he wants his friends and riders to see someone else in that casket, a richer man, a wilder man, a less broken man.
Nah, man. You sit in your livingroom with a bottle of rye whiskey and bob your head dramatically to the slow beat. You close your eyes, shake your head, and every once in awhile say "yessah".
When he says "Let her go, let her go God..." it seems he's about to say "God damn it", but he says "God bless her". It's so unusual to hear males talking like these to or about their loved ones in songs. His voice contains so much contained revolt, yet so much love and resignation that it gives me the chills every time I hear it.
I came here to see if anyone recognised it right after watching it. I like the movie, but I think I need to watch it again to truly understand it. So far I like how the ambiguity adds to the movie. Pulls us out of the movie, a neutral observers point of view of Mr. Badii.
Supposedly the melody is from an old Russian song that Mrs. Karnofsky used to sing to him when he was a little boy. Louis Armstrong was adopted by this family.
An Old Army Mate, used to sing this when in his cups, have looked for years, finally found the great Man, as someone said below, should have come here first - RIP Jack
This was played at my father's funeral,as we carried his coffin into the crematorium. It was completely him! It still fills me with respect and love for the man he was! RIP dad.
Ella and Louis were to good for this earth. When they perform together... the world just stops... stops turning on its axis because everyone just listens and for then, that's all that matters. That's the beauty of truly beautiful music.
YUP! you know it's Ella & Louis-pronounced Louie-(I think Ed Sullivan was the only person to call him Louis) when your ears bleed & adding or subtracting 1 note would destroy the performance. May they rest in peace. Spelled it out because they didn't abbreviate music.
I don't know why this is on my mind so strong tonight. Thought I would share. When I was about 16 I went to breakfast alone with my Papa (grandfather). Before we went in we sat in the parking lot for probably 30 minutes with him fiddling with the radio trying to get the CD to play a certain song. I told him it was no problem and that I could look it up, but he wanted me to listen to it right then. I felt such a connection to him and that song. Its a happy memory but I still get teary when I hear it. One of my regrets is not requesting it to be played at his funeral. But I think he knows what it means to me.
As my final jazz band concert in my senior year of high school I played this (on trumpet) with a few of my friends in a combo... It is to this day my favorite performance of all time. We have such a great group, an incredible drummer and a fantastic singer. :') I love this song sooo much
1 song, 1 verse, a simple stanza, and you could die of the agonizingly exhilarating feeling it bestows. Melancholic, I could feel the blood running through my veins...yet, death ever so close...this music takes me somewhere I can’t tell.
This was one of the first songs I learned how to play on the trumpet when I was 9. I LOVE this music. This is one of my favorite songs by Louis. Screw the pop addicts, hail to the jazz lovers!
There's a book called "I Went Down To St. James Infirmary" by Robert Harwood that's pretty outstanding. The song actually comes from the 1600s, and was originally called "The Unfortunate Rake." As it made its way through the years and throughout the world, it became different songs such as "Streets of Laredo." The bit about "she'll never find a man like me" was the New Orleans version, and if you know anything about New Orleans, that would be the version.
My mind had been conditioned with this masterpiece! When I was seventeen watched an Iranian movie called"The taste of cherry"1997.This features a trumpet piece, Louis Armstrong's 1929 adaptation of "St. James Infirmary Blues."for finale scene. After passing more than two decades ,love both of them. taste of cherry and Armstrong's "St. James Infirmary Blues" .
I'm sorry but honestly... how can you dislike this... someone...anyone tell me how... i don't even see the dislike button on my screen because this is too wonderful of a song
And this is why I love jazz. This man was a gift to us. That trumpet sends chills through my body and is a whole raw, surreal emotion in its own right. The way he puts his own flourish midway through the song... "Braggin'." ; you got to nod and say, "damn." I would love to go back to hear this played live... The way he sways out of earshot with the music, as if he is one with the sounds... Haunting. Absolutely haunting. And I adore it. Beautiful.
I love Louis Armstrong and I raised my children on classic jazz along with classical artists such as as Bach, Chopin etc... I feel it is important to listen to this wonderful old music.
Deep dark and broken Nor needed a single word spoken But the cries of man The wails the sigh The down right consternation of finally being free Not yet felt or seen by you and me Just a final treat For the Dearly departed
I guarantee that if you try to sing this song like Louie you will cry. You don't even have to be sad. but that passion, that emotion in the song.. It gets to you.
This song is unbelievable! I first heard a different version by Louis a few years ago. It just makes the hair stand up all over my body, sheer timeless genius. If this record leaves you cold, your already dead, BRAVO!! MAGNIFICO!!
Wow, a new depth is felt when I listen to him play, like my world changed somehow. This song gives me the chills and my soul is swayed to and fro with the song
Such a great song. Just imagine how different the world was back then when this song was recorded. Then realise how fitting it is today and every other day. How that voice still hits you, how the horns still morn and resonate through your bones every time you push play.
Satchmo is incredible. His sound is so rich in information. I shake my head at least 3 times a day in utter amazement of his phrasing and ideas, consistency and shear energy he puts in every note he plays and sings. Thank you god for giving us satchmo just at the right time as recording technology blossomed so we can hear his message for years to come.
Listening to this on lsd has to be one of the single most beautiful moments i have experienced in my life. Louis Arsmstrong is a true musician, always played straight from the heart.
a louis armstrong LP given to me for my 1962 christmas inspired me to join band in 64 and i got cornet. i was 1st chair in the jr high band and high school band i still play in a community band
I went down to St. James Infirmary Saw my baby there She was stretched out on a long white table So cold, so sweet, so fair Let her go, let her go! God bless her wherever she may be She can look this wide world over But she'll never find a sweet man like me (*Laughter* braggin') When I die bury me in straight lace shoes I want a box-back coat and a Stetson hat (John B., that is) Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain So the boys will know that I died standin' pat
this song speaks to me on so may different levels....the lyrics and the was Sachmo delivers it. plus the amazing jazz band to accommodate Mr. Armstrong...Just pure musical greatness...

The "braggin" and his laugh gets me every time! Only he could adlib that in one of the saddest and most chilling songs ever and make it so endearing.
It makes that line make sense; in most versions, the tone doesn't fit, but here, he's trying to joke...but doesn't quite succeed.

buried my father today and he had chosen the music in advance so today was the first time I heard the amazing song.
This is called a pure masterpiece. Beside the lyric, the harmony, melody and its deep great atmosphere makes it a remarkable jazz piece....
Supposedly the melody is from an old Russian song that Mrs. Karnofsky used to sing to him when he was a little boy. Louis Armstrong was adopted by this family.
Now some old man between 90 and 100 years old listens to this song very happy at home remembering the music of his time.
Never cared for Louis Armstrong but this song changed that.

But she'll never find a sweet man like me

OMG - this is soooo good. Just sends me. Every time. Just love it.
The clean sound on that trumpet is divinely inspired. Love also that someone called Peanuts is playing on it too. [Chuckle]
I'm so glad that I found this song. I've been trying to find this song for ages and dammit, this song is so good.
Fantastic Tune, Louis is truly the best
01:52 AM in bed drinking a warm cup of rooibos tea, listening to Louis & in the background i hear Cape Town winds telling winter is here...

this song speaks to me on so may different levels....the lyrics and the was Sachmo delivers it. plus the amazing jazz band to accommodate Mr. Armstrong...Just pure musical greatness...
