The Young Louis Armstrong on Records: A Critical Survey of the Early Recordings, 1923-1928

by Edward Brooks and Dan Morgenstern

Comprehensive chronological survey and analysis of every recording on which Louis Armstrong played during the period 1923 to 1928. Armstrong's immense impact on the evolution of jazz is found primarily in these early recordings, and Brooks's close examination of this period is important, as much of this influence becomes obscured by later recordings. Glossary, bibliography, and title index.
