In 1965 Louis Armstrong gave his All Stars among others 6 concerts (old) Berlin Friedrichstadtpalast (20:03 -. 22:03.), Four concerts at the Leipzig Exhibition Hall III (23:03 -. 24.03.) And other concerts in the former "DDR" where you could up to this point do not buy a Louis Armstrong record, and in the former Eastern Bloc.
So lets us this album with its nine titles and a duration of 46 minutes to participate in this historic and unique event.
When Its Sleepy Time Down South, Knife, Blueberry Hill, Without A Song, Struttin With Some Barbecue, The Faithful Hussar, Memories of You, Hello Dolly and The Faithful Hussar again in a radio edit.
These are the titles that offers us this album. Played by a Louis Armstrong and his All Stars in top form. Who were these All-Stars then, the tripartite, written by Karlheinz Drechsel German information and translated into English text does not tell us. But for this text offers an insight into the former political conditions, in the background of the conclusion of the concert and especially a short emotional insight into Louis Armstrong.
And so opens up just by these words not only the historical significance of this concert, but it lets us glimpse a piece, what chance forgive other music labels, in which they renounce meaningful designs or add only foreign-language versions. And we as consumers can see here on the opportunities we do not, if we buy these products.
Conclusion: If you dispense with this album, which missed the chance of a great album that is particularly well achieved its effect by the remarks made by Karlheinz Drechsel.
Five stars and an absolute buy recommendation.
