The Platinum Collection

Description

The world’s most famous and most influential trumpet player shaped the face of jazz. Then, after inventing the art of scat singing, he moved on to become one of the greatest all-round entertainers – a singer and musician like no other, one who appeared in countless films and made an array of great recordings spanning jazz, Broadway and pure pop. Even today, many years after his death in 1971, the sound of the so-musical gravel that was Louis Armstrong’s voice still resonates throughout our lives.
