Louis Armstrong would have celebrated his 123rd birthday on August 4 this year. Isn't it wonderful that 53 years after he left the planet Earth, a musician is still spreading endless joy with his music? Even in the age of streaming, his songs are still listened to in the high double-digit millions every month. For fans of good old LPs and CDs, Verve Records is now releasing "Wonderful World: The Best of Louis Armstrong", a wonderfully nostalgic compilation that truly deserves the "Best" in its title.
