Louis Armstrong on Music - Rare 1968 Interview

Audio interview of Louis Armstrong in England in 1968, venting about music, praising the Beatles, criticizing musicians who just play for other musicians, reminiscing about King Oliver and more. At the end, he references a 7-year-old boy who he had just heard play the trumpet earlier that afternoon; that boy is Enrico Tomasso, still a top trumpeter in England in 2016! There's still a LOT today's musicians can learn from Louis Armstrong.
