What's My Line Louis Armstrong 'Hello Dolly' Live Performance

originally aired March 22, 1964

[@slc2466]

Unbelievable on-the-spot performance by a massive talent, when most stars would politely but firmly just say no. There's only one Satchmo!

[@antd8259]

So much love for an African American at that time. Wonderful! Louis Armstrong practically got a standing ovation when he came out.

A real Superstar was Louis Armstrong 🌟🌟📀🌟🌟📀🌟🌟🌟📀🌟🌟🌟🌟⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@bennyrobles9194]

He was just a wonderful human being.!! He could make everybody happy with his songs.! Louis Armstrong, the great Satchmo.!

[@doointhedoo]

Louis Armstrong lit up the room with that smile of his.

[@lutherp.smithjr.5842]

Tears of joy there will never be another like Satchmo

[@dougdanzeisen9608]

Louis could light up the room with his smile and his voice. When you get both together, well that's amazing. The crowd just loves him. And really who doesn't?

[@dougobrien4877]

What a wonderful human being

[@katamekothriis1613]

I love his smile, it's so warm, kind, and full of joy. Out of all of his songs, my favorite will always be "Stardust"

[@MrOmgfreak]

i can watch him sing that all day....

[@wilmanric2277]

I wondered how how he was going to answer questions! One peep out of him with that voice and he'd be given away!

[@flemingcourt]

Armstrong's contribution to music cannot be overstated. Way before Hello Dolly, Mame, It's a Wonderful World, he laid down the basis for generations to come. He introduced swing into the vocabulary of music, the first to play and sing, pioneered soloing, introduced scat, extended the range of the trumpet, and much like Miles would do 30 years later, played one pretty note instead of a lot of fancy ones. GENIUS in working man's cloth. THE Man!

[@stupaul3233]

A true legend with a beautiful smile, great sense of humor and a great talent!

[@MEMarco1958]

The audience went crazy when he signed in 😁😁😁

[@thomastimlin1724]

He sang it the exact key he recorded and permed it. no start note given to him, amazing.

[@scottmiller6495]

One of the greatest entertainers of all time!!!!!!!!!

[@crfdln]

This man was a national treasure and much under-appreciated when he was alive. No trashy "rap" here, folks.

[@tashkenty]

7 weeks later, the song hits #1 in billboard hot 100

[@iamintheburg9820]

Instant and eternal joy.

[@norajazzypoppy9043]

Louie was Amazing .I grow up with his music.🎼🎵🎺🙏♥️

[@jackmeyhoffer5107]

Awesome! He had quite a smile!

[@theblueriverjazzbandmusic2540]

The greatest.

[@bobsmith544]

I searched for "Miles Davis on What's my Line", hoping he had been a mystery guest, but was glad to find this one! (a role model for all jazz trumpet players!)

[@aliceinchainz3003]

this guy and jimmi duranti 2 of my all time greats

[@JazzFan76]

There's a video of Louis and Jimmy together singing "Old Man Time" at the Hollywood Palace.

[@edithann1284]

Do you know how many young adults have NO IDEA who satchmo aka Louis Armstrong was?????? Argh! And he's such a legend. At least I taught my kids the basics... Via CD player in the car!!!! I highly recommend exposing your children to the greats early, before pop radio takes over their lives!!!!!!

[@taylorismylife2997]

Totally agree, I really want to name my future kid after him.

[@michaelneel4828]

He was TOP DRAW Baby !!!

[@lindaszatkowski321]

He was a wonderful man

[@calvinhunter5065]

How awesome

[@edgeworldpictures6831]

Holy WOW!

[@ernisj.8087]

These were the days!!

[@morganfisherart]

To prove what an extraordinary musician he is - he sang Hello Dolly in exactly the right key - without any instruments to accompany him! Compare this to any other version on youtube!

[@nandofigueira2005]

Satchmo the great!!

[@CrystalClearNews]

Dorothy got it again!

[@ssga_tgbuddy3082]

Were there any "Magical Human Beings"? Yes, he was one.

[@КонстантинЧубич]

Красава!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! В России такого шоу никогда не было и не будет. Все честно и без фальши.

[@richardbrafford5392]

There was only one "Satchmo"

Panel is particularly dumb this time.

[@edgeworldpictures6831]

6 thumbs down - don't get it. Moving on.

[@gtaylor331]

That's okay, I don't get you, your ignorance, you're lack of taste, you're bigotry.

[@michaelmayoh656]

Don't get what you mean?

[@JazzFan76]

I think the original commentor was saying that they didn't understand why this video had thumbs down on it. He or she wasn't being a bigot. 🙄
