Louis Armstrong, Just Because

I’ve been hearing a lot of Louis Armstrong songs recently; and I wanted to share some of my favorites. These are all classic songs from the “Great American Songbook”, but Satchmo’s delivery is distinctive and all his own. Give him a few minutes, okay?

“A Kiss to Build a Dream On”:

“La Vie en Rose”:

With Ella Fitzgerald, “Dream a Little Dream of Me” (don’t miss this one):

They knew how to sing ’em in those days.
