Louis Armstrong would have celebrated his 123rd birthday on August 4th this year. Isn't it wonderful that a musician, 53 years after leaving planet Earth, still spreads endless joy with his music? Even in the age of streaming, his songs are still listened to in high double-digit millions every month. For fans of the good old LP and CD, Verve Records is now releasing “Wonderful World: The Best of Louis Armstrong”, a wonderfully nostalgic designed compilation that really deserves the “Best” in the title. In addition to the global mega-hit “What A Wonderful World”, twelve other Louis pearls are represented, including “A Kiss To Build A Dream On,” ‘La Vie En Rose,” “Hello, Dolly!” and two duets with Ella Fitzgerald, “Cheek To Cheek” and “Dream A Little Dream of Me.”
