One of the best human beings all round. Funny, humble, morally sound, and what a musician. Of all the people I wish I could have met, he's among the highest on my list.
At least from what I know, his voice got like that because of several strenuous, frigid seasons of playing on ferry boats and the like. After that, he’d gotten several surgeries to repair his damaged vocal chords, which did all but help. This gave Armstrong the rasp we know him for today
If so, it was from before his first vocal sessions at age 26, when the rasp was fully formed. New Orleans musicians used to walk all night in the rain to sound like him.
Louis Armstrong easily has one of the most instantly recognizable voices in the world and it would be difficult to disguise. He should have just nodded and let John Daly do the verbal response to make this set more challenging. Bennet Cerf is too sharp to miss the identity of the person making those grunts.
i actually clapped!!! ive been on here watching i think every episode...times lk these im really thankful for youtube and the ppl that take the time to put these classics up...i would of never seen it otherwise! Thanks! x
Estoy plenamente de acuerdo, y no soy americano ni he vivido esa época. Tanto el presentador como los panelistas son un ejemplo de profesionalidad, elegancia y simpatía. Disfruto cuando veo estos programas, que he descubierto hace poco.
they got him at 2:35, and to be honest, i'm surprised louis even lasted that long. even at the mumbling i probably would have guessed him instantly. can't hide something so one-of-a-kind like that voice.
It's really hard for him to disguise his voice! He has a voice everyone knows right away, as did Eddie "Rochester" Anderson, who was also a mystery guest.
..."Satchmo" would find it very difficult to disguise that voice in any way...panel was on to it pretty smartly!! Would this show have been aired about mid 50's, I'm pickin' ??
This can be anywhere between 1952 and 1954, because Steve Allen was a regular panelist before he left to become the original host of "The Tonight Show."
His WML? appearance in 1964 was indeed heralded by a thunderous ovation from the audience. A fitting tribute to give to a man who freely and unstintingly gave of himself through his music...
What stupid posts I'm reading here, trying to make something out of nothing - there's no contempt in the audience, no disrespect, it's not a smattering of weak applause - take it for what it is - early television... people didn't go crazy back then like they're on the Arsenio Hall Show going "whoop whoop whoop" - - they applauded politely!! But putting all that aside - aside from being an amazing talent, I have to say what a SWEET MAN Satchmo was!! So genuine!! He is sorely missed!!
One minute I’m laughing at Lucy and the next I am watching 50’s vintage game shows they had some interesting people on here I would of played this game. 😂
Look at that million-dollar smile! What a warm, kind, sincere gentleman who also happened to be 'gifted beyond human' as a jazz musician, one of the few whose influence is not only still felt today but also whose influence includes two instruments - his voice and his horn. (To see a heart-warming photo of Louis, go to Google/Life photo collection, type in his name and scroll through for a b & w of him with a group of young black girls on the street, one of whom appears to be singing for Louis.)
Louis Armstrong was America's greatest ambassador. Back when it mattered. He should have been both Secretary of State and Ambassador of Jazz. Dual titles.
Interesting that in Louis Armstrong's first appearance on "What's My Line?", Arlene Francis was sitting in what later became Dorothy Kilgallen's regular seat next to Bennett Cerf and Dorothy was sitting it what would become Arlene's normal seat at the far left of the panelists' table!

Even his "hmmm"'s are recognizable
Louis Armstrong's grunts are so recognizable.
Seeing his sneaky laugh and the facial expressions Louis cracked me up so much!!!
I love how he doesn't talk because he knows it will give him away
BEAUTIFUL HANDWRITING

With that wink, no doubt what he was talking about!!!!
Those good ol "JAZZ CIGARETTES"
Louis has the deepest voice.
Satchmo = Happiness. Armstrong seems to be the most happy person in the world!!!!He's outstanding !!!!
One of the best human beings all round. Funny, humble, morally sound, and what a musician. Of all the people I wish I could have met, he's among the highest on my list.
Oh yeah! Talented and a great humanitarian. Definitely a credit to his race, the human race!
@@joeblaumer2085 "they had us in the first half, not gonna lie"
@@joeblaumer2085 I remember reading that Ellington said of Pops, he was born poor died rich,. and never hurt anyone along the way
His smile is intoxicating.
There’s no sound that Mr Armstrong could make without being recognized. He’s a great singer especially It’s a wonderful world JT 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🐠🎣🛥🌴⛱😊🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
What an incredible era.
Any time I've seen Louis Armstrong on the screen I've found myself smiling! He just always comes across as one of the nicest guys! A music legend!
Eso parece cierto. De esas personas que te ponen de buen humor.
His voice is a dead give away, especially for the panel who knows it all
How could Satchmo possibly disguise that wonderful voice.
Louis Armstrong = LEGEND!
his personality is infectious. coolest guy ever! ^^

That would've been soooo hard for Louis, trying not to sound like he does
Louis Armstrong had and has one of the most recognizable voices in jazz music, it would have instantly given him away.
In music. Period
Satchmo is legend. Loved the fact that the host called everyone Mr., Ms. or Mrs. very respectful indeed.
Siempre digo que me gusta tanto el presentador como los panelistas. Una época que, desgraciadamente, no volverá.
What a wonderful world!
I would have loved to just have a cup of coffee with him. Louis Armstrong was SO GOOD!!!
i actually clapped!!!
ive been on here watching i think every episode...times lk these im really thankful for youtube and the ppl that take the time to put these classics up...i would of never seen it otherwise! Thanks! x
Love His Sign It His Handwriting Is Incredible
One of the all-time greatest jazz innovators too.
mmhhmm...
Ok now I just cried...my dad loved his music! One of the gods of the music world!
Can you imagine the kind of HEROIC courage it took Pops to who be he was at the time of his life? Total belief in the power of love)
Nunca había oído llamar "Pops" a Armstrong.
This show is so happy and wholesome :) We could use a few shows like this today.
Estoy plenamente de acuerdo, y no soy americano ni he vivido esa época. Tanto el presentador como los panelistas son un ejemplo de profesionalidad, elegancia y simpatía. Disfruto cuando veo estos programas, que he descubierto hace poco.
I love Louis Armstrong's smile. It's very contagious 😁
Sí. Realmente era muy difícil verlo serio.

What A Wonderful World. Oh Yeah🎶
at one time Louis Armstrong was the most recognizable person in the world...even more than the rulers of England or the USA.
they got him at 2:35, and to be honest, i'm surprised louis even lasted that long. even at the mumbling i probably would have guessed him instantly. can't hide something so one-of-a-kind like that voice.
Bless you Pops.
Wish i could have met Louie. How can you not love him?
the great....LOUIS ARMSTRONG......nothing else needs to be said.
Louis Armstrong: proof that talent is talent regardless of social class, race or education. A true genius, his music shall live forever.
This show is amazing. So many great moments.
He has a great signature.
4:00 I thought he was gonna say “Don’t forget to like and subscribe”
Sheer genius. What a fellow!
This is great!

Wow; that was awesome!
John Daly was a gentleman.. very kind and very sweet.. look while he is welcoming the great Satchmo Mr. Armstrong. Two great men!!
👍👍👍
Classic tv at its finest Mr
The ovation accorded Louis Armstrong seemed rather cool, in light of his stature in show business. I expected more enthusiasm for such a legend.
His WML? appearance in 1964 was indeed heralded by a thunderous ovation from the audience. A fitting tribute to give to a man who freely and unstintingly gave of himself through his music...

👍👍
Good answer.....he used to come to my home town in La. and we so loved him forever
Very classy stuff.
He is sooooooo cool. Loooove himmmmm♡♡♡ so muh
One minute I’m laughing at Lucy and the next I am watching 50’s vintage game shows they had some interesting people on here I would of played this game. 😂
His music was inspiring, a awesome person
It would be cool to see more of these
You can easily recognize those grunts...
His exit was smooth as f too, man what a legend
Loving this
A great musician and a real gentleman RIP
Louis Armstrong is definatley my favourite person ever to live and the best musician!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Well, I'll get higher next time."
Damn, that Cerf was sharp.
Laughed like hell when Louis said he'd "get higher next time."
Aww, Louis Armstrong is so magical !! Love Arlene's fancy mask and Mr Daly's youtful appareance !
One of the worst "What's My Line" guests in that he cannot not be himself. LOVE THAT MAN!!!

"Well, I'll get higher next time!"
I'm sure you will, Mr. Armstrong.
Mr Armstrong was a class act

Louis Armstrong was America's greatest ambassador. Back when it mattered. He should have been both Secretary of State and Ambassador of Jazz. Dual titles.
