(2-CD Set) After the Second World War Louis Armstrong decided to gather a small group around him, consisting of some of the finest players of the day including Jack Teagarden, Earl Hines and hot drummer Big Sid Catlett. This freewheeling group didn"t really take off until Columbia producer George Avakian persuaded Louis to record an album of WC Handy"s classic blues sides. All musicians rose to the occasion and we feature the entire album here alongside its equally classic follow up devoted to the music of Fats Waller. Wonderfully remastered and with bonus tracks. Tracks include: St. Louis Blues, Yellow Dog Blues, Loveless Love, Aunt Hagar"s Blues, Long Gone, Memphis Blues and more.
