I love reggae music, especially Bob Marley, but if I am honest I also like a bit of Jazz, not any old Jazz though, when I say Jazz I mean LouisArmstrong.
LouisArmstrong a Jazz musician that will not be forgotten and an act that will never be followed, some Jazz musicians will try and follow in his footsteps but non will succeed, Louis was unique.
Who else could have that rough, gravel like voice that could become so famous, that famous smile and the twinkle in his eyes?

Advantages: Amazing contrast of voices, Disadvantages: Some sonic quality is lost due to the age of the recording
This CD is a brilliant stepping-stone into the Jazz world. The instantly recognisable voice of LouisArmstrong is familiarly heart warming, Louis stood next to the sensational Ella, make a fine pair. The strong vocals are supported by the excellent band, with great instrumental links keeping the listener on the edge of their seat.
The intensity and coarseness of Mr. Armstrong's voice compels the audience to wish for the next scat solo or the next parade of incredible human talent that is Louis. Of course the same can be said of the sassy Ms. Fitzgerald who can sustain these high levels of aptitude.
I recommend this CD to any budding music fan who wishes to broaden their Musical horizons! HAPPY LISTENING!

Shane Jacobson, who helped write the story and also plays Kenny, is so incredibly talented. He breathes life into Kenny, gives him substance, and never once falters in his performance. Shane Jacobson IS Kenny.
Although the viewer is likely to be put off by the docu-type filming of this movie at the very beginning, it will take no more than 5 minutes for him/her to be hooked. Kenny will make you smile, he'll make you laugh, his words of wisdom will hit home, and he'll make you wish he was your new best friend. As he takes you along on his day-to-day grind, you will be appalled by the rudeness of some ...
