    █ █                louis armstrong was the first important  █ █
    █ █                soloist to emerge in jazz, and he became █ █
    █ █                the most influential musician in the     █ █
    █ █                music's history. as a trumpet virtuoso,  █ █
    █ █                his playing, beginning with the 1920s    █ █
    █ █                studio recordings made with his hot five █ █
    █ █                and hot seven ensembles, charted a       █ █
    █ █                future for jazz in highly imaginative,   █ █
    █ █                emotionally charged improvisation. for   █ █
    █ █                this, he is revered by jazz fans. but    █ █
    █ █                armstrong also became an enduring figure █ █
    █ █                in popular music, due to his             █ █
    █ █                distinctively phrased bass singing and   █ █
    █ █                engaging personality, which were on      █ █
    █ █                display in a series of vocal recordings  █ █
    █ █                and film roles. armstrong had a          █ █
    █ █                difficult childhood. william armstrong,  █ █
    █ █                his father, was a factory worker who     █ █
    █ █                abandoned the family soon after the      █ █
    █ █                boy's birth. armstrong was brought up by █ █
    █ █                his mother, mary (albert) armstrong, and █ █
    █ █                his maternal grandmother. he showed an   █ █
    █ █                early interest in music, and a junk      █ █
    █ █                dealer for whom he worked as a           █ █
    █ █                grade-school student helped him buy a    █ █
    █ █                cornet, which he taught himself to play. █ █
    █ █                he dropped out of school at 11 to join   █ █
    █ █                an informal group, but on december 31,   █ █
    █ █                1912, he fired a gun during a new year's █ █
    █ █                eve celebration, for which he was sent   █ █
    █ █                to reform school. he studied music there █ █
    █ █                and played cornet and bugle in the       █ █
    █ █                school band, eventually becoming its     █ █
    █ █                leader. he was released on june 16,      █ █
    █ █                1914, and did manual labor while trying  █ █
    █ █                to establish himself as a musician. he   █ █
    █ █                was taken under the wing of cornetist    █ █
    █ █                joe "king" oliver, and when oliver moved █ █
    █ █                to chicago in june 1918, he replaced him █ █
    █ █                in the kid ory band. he moved to the     █ █
    █ █                fate marable band in the spring of 1919, █ █
    █ █                staying with marable until the fall of   █ █
    █ █                1921. armstrong moved to chicago to join █ █
    █ █                oliver's band in august 1922 and made    █ █
    █ █                his first recordings as a member of the  █ █
    █ █                group in the spring of 1923. he married  █ █
    █ █                lillian harden, the pianist in the       █ █
    █ █                oliver band, on february 5, 1924. (she   █ █
    █ █                was the second of his four wives.) on    █ █
    █ █                her encouragement, he left oliver and    █ █
    █ █                joined fletcher henderson's band in new  █ █
    █ █                york, staying for a year and then going  █ █
    █ █                back to chicago in november 1925 to join █ █
    █ █                the dreamland syncopators, his wife's    █ █
    █ █                group. during this period, he switched   █ █
    █ █                from cornet to trumpet. armstrong had    █ █
    █ █                gained sufficient individual notice to   █ █
    █ █                make his recording debut as a leader on  █ █
    █ █                november 12, 1925. contracted to okeh    █ █
    █ █                records, he began to make a series of    █ █
    █ █                recordings with studio-only groups       █ █
    █ █                called the hot fives or the hot sevens.  █ █
    █ █                for live dates, he appeared with the     █ █
    █ █                orchestras led by erskine tate and       █ █
    █ █                carroll dickerson. the hot fives'        █ █
    █ █                recording of "muskrat ramble" gave       █ █
    █ █                armstrong a top ten hit in july 1926,    █ █
    █ █                the band for the track featuring kid ory █ █

    █ █                johnny st. cyr on banjo.                 █ █
    █ █                by february 1927, armstrong was          █ █
    █ █                well-enough known to front his own       █ █
    █ █                group, louis armstrong and his stompers, █ █
    █ █                at the sunset cafΘ in chicago.           █ █
    █ █                (armstrong did not function as a         █ █
    █ █                bandleader in the usual sense, but       █ █
    █ █                instead typically lent his name to       █ █
    █ █                established groups.) in april, he        █ █
    █ █                reached the charts with his first vocal  █ █
    █ █                recording, "big butter and egg man," a   █ █
    █ █                duet with may alix. he took a position   █ █
    █ █                as star soloist in carroll dickerson's   █ █
    █ █                band at the savoy ballroom in chicago in █ █
    █ █                march 1928, later taking over as the     █ █
    █ █                band's frontman. "hotter than that" was  █ █
    █ █                in the top ten in may 1928, followed in  █ █
    █ █                september by "west end blues," which     █ █
    █ █                later became one of the first recordings █ █
    █ █                named to the grammy hall of fame.        █ █
    █ █                armstrong returned to new york with his  █ █
    █ █                band for an engagement at connie's inn   █ █

    █ █                misbehavin'." in september, his          █ █
    █ █                recording of the song entered the        █ █
    █ █                charts, becoming a top ten hit.          █ █
    █ █                armstrong fronted the luis russell       █ █

    █ █                its pop-oriented big sister columbia     █ █
    █ █                records, for which he recorded two top   █ █

    █ █                "you can depend on me" before scoring a  █ █
    █ █                number one hit with "all of me" in march █ █

    █ █                to england for a tour. he spent the next █ █
    █ █                several years in europe, his american    █ █
    █ █                career maintained by a series of         █ █
    █ █                archival recordings, including the top   █ █
    █ █                ten hits "sweethearts on parade" (august █ █

    █ █                records and quickly scored a             █ █
    █ █                double-sided top ten hit, "i'm in the    █ █
    █ █                mood for love"/"you are my lucky star."  █ █

    █ █                organized a big band for him that had    █ █
    █ █                its premiere in indianapolis on july 1,  █ █
    █ █                1935; for the next several years, he     █ █
    █ █                toured regularly. he also took a series  █ █
    █ █                of small parts in motion pictures,       █ █
    █ █                beginning with pennies from heaven in    █ █

    █ █                with ella fitzgerald. he returned to     █ █

    █ █                post-world war ii years, armstrong broke █ █
    █ █                up his big band and put together a small █ █
    █ █                group dubbed the all stars, which made   █ █
    █ █                its debut in los angeles on august 13,   █ █
    █ █                1947. he embarked on his first european  █ █
    █ █                tour since 1935 in february 1948, and    █ █
    █ █                thereafter toured regularly around the   █ █
    █ █                world. in june 1951 he reached the top   █ █
    █ █                ten of the lp charts with satchmo at     █ █
    █ █                symphony hall ("satchmo" being his       █ █
    █ █                nickname), and he scored his first top   █ █
    █ █                ten single in five years with "(when we  █ █
    █ █                are dancing) i get ideas" later in the   █ █
    █ █                year. the single's b-side, and also a    █ █
    █ █                chart entry, was "a kiss to build a      █ █
    █ █                dream on," sung by armstrong in the film █ █
    █ █                the strip. in 1993, it gained renewed    █ █
    █ █                popularity when it was used in the film  █ █
    █ █                sleepless in seattle. armstrong          █ █
    █ █                completed his contract with decca in     █ █
    █ █                1954, after which his manager made the   █ █
    █ █                unusual decision not to sign him to      █ █
    █ █                another exclusive contract but instead   █ █
    █ █                to have him freelance for different      █ █
    █ █                labels. satch plays fats, a tribute to   █ █
    █ █                fats waller, became a top ten lp for     █ █
    █ █                columbia in october 1955, and verve      █ █
    █ █                records contracted armstrong for a       █ █
    █ █                series of recordings with ella           █ █
    █ █                fitzgerald, beginning with the chart lp  █ █
    █ █                ella and louis in 1956. armstrong        █ █
    █ █                continued to tour extensively, despite a █ █
    █ █                heart attack in june 1959. in 1964, he   █ █
    █ █                scored a surprise hit with his recording █ █
    █ █                of the title song from the broadway      █ █
    █ █                musical hello, dolly!, which reached     █ █
    █ █                number one in may, followed by a         █ █
    █ █                gold-selling album of the same name. it  █ █
    █ █                won him a grammy for best vocal          █ █
    █ █                performance. this pop success was        █ █
    █ █                repeated internationally four years      █ █
    █ █                later with "what a wonderful world,"     █ █
    █ █                which hit number one in the u.k. in      █ █
    █ █                april 1968. it did not gain as much      █ █
    █ █                notice in the u.s. until 1987 when it    █ █
    █ █                was used in the film good morning,       █ █
    █ █                vietnam, after which it became a top 40  █ █
    █ █                hit. armstrong was featured in the 1969  █ █
    █ █                film of hello, dolly!, performing the    █ █
    █ █                title song as a duet with barbra         █ █
    █ █                streisand. he performed less frequently  █ █
    █ █                in the late '60s and early '70s and died █ █
    █ █                of a heart ailment at 69. louis          █ █
    █ █                armstrong was embraced by two distinctly █ █
    █ █                different audiences: jazz fans who       █ █
    █ █                revered him for his early innovations as █ █
    █ █                an instrumentalist, but were             █ █
    █ █                occasionally embarrassed by his lack of  █ █
    █ █                interest in later developments in jazz   █ █
    █ █                and, especially, by his willingness to   █ █
    █ █                serve as a light entertainer; and pop    █ █
    █ █                fans, who delighted in his joyous        █ █
    █ █                performances, particularly as a          █ █
    █ █                vocalist, but were largely unaware of    █ █
    █ █                his significance as a jazz musician.     █ █
    █ █                given his popularity, his long career,   █ █
    █ █                and the extensive label-jumping he did   █ █
    █ █                in his later years, as well as the       █ █
    █ █                differing jazz and pop sides of his      █ █
    █ █                work, his recordings are extensive and   █ █
    █ █                diverse, with parts of his catalog owned █ █
    █ █                by many different companies. but many of █ █
    █ █                his recorded performances are            █ █
    █ █                masterpieces, and none are less than     █ █
    █ █                entertaining.                            █ █
