Title: ISN'T THIS BOP?
Review: This doesn't sound like Traditional Jazz, sometimes called New Orleans Jazz, to me. It doesn't even sound like the broader classification of Dixieland Jazz to me. It sounds like bebop, or bop, to me.Louis Armstrong never degraded another musician as far as I know. Maybe Louie would have liked this, I don't know. I do know that I don't. There has never been another musician or singer with Louis' ability to send the audience home humming the melodies of the tunes in his show. If I had never heard Hello Dolly or I'll Be Glad When You're Dead You Rascal You before I had heard this CD I would not be able to hum those tunes 10 minutes after hearing this CD. I'm sorry, but being born in New Orleans doesn't make you a New Orleans Jazz great.It is commendable that these modern music players have honored the great Louis Armstrong with this CD. The boppers should love it.
