Armstrong's contribution to music cannot be overstated. Way before Hello Dolly, Mame, It's a Wonderful World, he laid down the basis for generations to come. He introduced swing into the vocabulary of music, the first to play and sing, pioneered soloing, introduced scat, extended the range of the trumpet, and much like Miles would do 30 years later, played one pretty note instead of a lot of fancy ones. GENIUS in working man's cloth. THE Man!
I learned about Mr Armstrong through my elementary school principal.. She hip LOL...always playing his songs in her office and telling the kids about him My family escaped communist Cuba..I was around 7 yrs old 1967 (time flies)!! As young adult I read his biography, he went thorough so much as a child. Satchmo you're the greatest!! That smile brightened and twinkle in your eye brightened my day
Do you know how many young adults have NO IDEA who satchmo aka Louis Armstrong was?????? Argh! And he's such a legend. At least I taught my kids the basics... Via CD player in the car!!!! I highly recommend exposing your children to the greats early, before pop radio takes over their lives!!!!!!
I searched for "Miles Davis on What's my Line", hoping he had been a mystery guest, but was glad to find this one! (a role model for all jazz trumpet players!)

Unbelievable on-the-spot performance by a massive talent, when most stars would politely but firmly just say no. There's only one Satchmo!
What a wonderful human being
He was just a wonderful human being.!! He could make everybody happy with his songs.!
Louis Armstrong, the great Satchmo.!
Tears of joy there will never be another like Satchmo
So much love for an African American at that time. Wonderful! Louis Armstrong practically got a standing ovation when he came out.
Watch James Brown perform Night train live
A real Superstar was Louis Armstrong 🌟🌟📀🌟🌟📀🌟🌟🌟📀🌟🌟🌟🌟⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Louis Armstrong lit up the room with that smile of his.
I love his smile, it's so warm, kind, and full of joy. Out of all of his songs, my favorite will always be "Stardust"
A true legend with a beautiful smile, great sense of humor and a great talent!
i can watch him sing that all day....
I wondered how how he was going to answer questions! One peep out of him with that voice and he'd be given away!
Instant and eternal joy.

He sang it the exact key he recorded and permed it. no start note given to him, amazing.
This man was a national treasure and much under-appreciated when he was alive. No trashy "rap" here, folks.

Totally agree, I really want to name my future kid after him.

Panel is particularly dumb this time.
winnie the pooh
Panel was particularly dumb.
6 thumbs down - don't get it. Moving on.
That's okay, I don't get you, your ignorance, you're lack of taste, you're bigotry.
Don't get what you mean?
I think the original commentor was saying that they didn't understand why this video had thumbs down on it. He or she wasn't being a bigot. 🙄
