The Wonderful World of Louis Armstrong All Stars, comprised largely of top-of-the-line Crescent City
musicians paying tribute to him with the brilliant album A Gift to Pops. The inventive re-envisioning of
music associated with the trumpeter/vocalist during his five-decade career features new arrangements
and new performances of stalwart tunes ranging from the “The Peanut Vendor” (recorded by him in
1930) to “What a Wonderful World” (recorded in 1968 and the most successful tune of his career).
Special guests include Wynton Marsalis and Common.

This new album is on Verve Records and is available HERE.
