Louis Armstrong - Happy Birthday Louis
Review by Yusuke Hirao
Louis Armstrong's album, Happy Birthday Louis, is a joyous celebration of the jazz legend's life and career. The album features a mix of classic tunes and lesser-known tracks, all performed with Armstrong's trademark energy and soulful playing.
Listeners will be immediately drawn to the album's opening track, "Happy Birthday To You," which features Armstrong's gravelly voice singing the song that was written in his honor. From there, the album takes off into a series of upbeat, swinging numbers, such as "Ain't Misbehavin'" and "Basin Street Blues."
One of the standout tracks on the album is "What a Wonderful World," a song that has become synonymous with Armstrong's legacy. The track is a beautiful reminder of the simple joys of life, and Armstrong's tender vocals are perfectly suited to the song's message.
