    It was for the time I was able to enjoy it. We were on the road with my father (Eddie Shu, clarinet here) till I was 8. Unfortunately I didn't have the ears or musical history to appreciate what I was experiencing. And I never did see my father again. This video was the first time I saw my father in color since I was 9. My only picture of him until recently was black and white. He has become my favorite musician. Aloha, Evan

      I'm sorry about your father and not seeing him, but man did he leave a lasting impression, on yourself and countless others. That man can slay on the clarinet! Gave me a whole new appreciation for the instrument in a jazz setting.

    I truly love Louis Armstrong. My parents raised me on Louis, Dean Martin, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and all of the other amazing musicians of the day. I am 40 now and appreciate all this beautiful music just as much as when I was a young kid if not more.
    I think swing has always been so under rated to the other genres of music, but that's just my personal opinion.

    My earliest live musical memory was seeing Louis Armstrong standing in front of me, ground level, playing “Hello Dolly” at the 1965 NY Worlds Fair in a crowd, as my parents held my hand. In my 30s I ended up living in New Orleans, as a musician.

    We played a "Tribute to Louis Armstrong" show in stage band (I was on bari sax) during the big swing, big band, blues, and jazz resurgence of the 1970s. Basin Street Blues was one of the numbers in the set, which built all the way up to the finale, When The Saints Go Marching In. We had them literally dancing in the aisles. I've been a LA fan since then.

      @Fuzzy._.l 4 года назад +2

      Honestly yeah, today we don’t have much popular music that’s actually original, or have people who struggled and risked it all to climb and wrote songs that spoke to the heart. Back when music labels and such would risk it on randoms like The Beatles or Queens, others who had a chance of not becoming famous but they did and we had amazing pleasure upon our ears from that risk being taken.
      Yet now they just realized they don’t have to risk it on people when they can just push some young or whatever is popular or appealing face and pour out the same garbage as any other artist, and now without the risk or giving a chance to some, we lose originality and the quality of music our fucking parents or grandparents listened to.
