A Jazz Legend's Final Performance


On January 29, 1971, Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong was a featured performer at the National Press Club in Washington. He died less than 6 months later. Now, for the first time, a CD of one of his final trumpet performances has been released. The CD is entitled "Red Beans and Rice-ly Yours: Satchmo at the National Press Club." On Friday, the album was among the 5 highest selling on iTunes and Amazon. What a wonderful tribute to such a legend :') Enjoy this video!
