This album contains the conclusion of the box set "Satchmo: A Musical Autobiography" plus two other fine Armstrong classics. The original liner notes for the King Oliver session run as follows-"This record is a tribute to the man who helped shape Louis Armstrong's trumpet style back in New Orleans and whose invitation to join his band in Chicago put him in the spotlight which has shone on him ever since". Players include Peanuts Hucko on clarinet, Trummy Young on trombone, Billie Kyle on piano, Mort Herbert on bass and Danny Barcelona on drums. Again, to quote from the original liner notes for "Louis and the Good Book" " A jazzman performing spirituals? In a sense that is what he has been doing all along". For this fine album Louis brings together jazz, blues, work songs and spirituals and mixes them into a fine jazz stew! However he also brings another key element into the mix, the American popular song in slow tempo called the "ballad" or "standard" which would go on to inform the repertoire of every jazz musicians set from that moment on. Players include Trummy Young on trombone, Edmund Hall on clarinet, Billy Kyle on piano, Mort Herbert on bass, Barrett Deems on drums, Everett Barksdale on guitar plus a choir of ten voices.

All classic albums plus have been digitally re-mastered.
