One of the greatest musical talents of all time, Louis 'Satchmo' Armstrong raised his trumpet and delivered a sensational concert for the BP Supershow, recorded at Australia's Television City (GTV 9 Studios) in 1964.
Backed by his talented All Star Band (including drummer extraordinaire Danny Barcelona, pianist Billy Kyle, bass player Ar Yell Shaw, trombonist
Trummy Young and clarinetist Joe Darensbourg).
Also featuring lively sponsor spots presented by Brian Henderson, this rarely seen and thoroughly entertaining B&W television treat is a must for all jazz fans.
Joined by guest vocalist Jewel Brown, the ever charismatic Satchmo pours his heart and lungs into a swinging set of memorable tunes including:
When it's Sleepy Time down South 'High Society Calypso
Perdido Street Blues
How High the Moon
Did You Hear about Jerry (with Jewel Brown)
When the Saints Go Marching In
Now You Has Jazz (from High Society)
Basin Street Blues
Blueberry Hill
Sweet Georgia Brown
I Left My Heart in San Francisco (with Jewel Brown)
