What Jazz are you listening to now?

[Ian Thumwood]

From The Hot Fives/Hot sevens :

Potato Head Blues, Louis Armstrong and His Hot Seven, 1927

Note the extended coda.

The JSP box set of this music is incredible. I find it staggering that Armstrong was so devastating in the music he produced at this time .

I see that there is a previously unreleased Art Blakey album “ Just Coolin’ “ out shortly.
Thoughts on this?

This is absolutely stellar BTW. The equal of the first bootleg live box.
