I only learned recently that Smithsonian/Fplkways were starting to do vinyl.They don't seem to put much thought into most of the titles they reissued.Totally off topic,but here's my #1 wish for a Folkways reissue on Lp http://www.folkways.si.edu/albumdetails.aspx?itemid=1922 Roger ________________________________ From: Michael Biel <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2012 12:50 PM Subject: Re: [ARSCLIST] Rare Louis Armstrong recording released THIS would have been a very sensible issue for Record Store Day, moreso than almost all of the ones that were done. Especially if they decided to reproduce the 1972 vinyl issue. http://www.folkways.si.edu/albumdetails.aspx?itemid=3370 http://www.amazon.com/Satchmo-National-Press-Club-Beans/dp/B007QCZANW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1335638064&sr=8-1 Mike Biel [log in to unmask] -------- Original Message -------- From: Music Hunter <[log in to unmask]> Very rare recording indeed! $ 12.97 to libraries & universities. Artist: Armstrong/Glenn/Gwaltney Title: Satchmo At The National Press Club: Red Beans & Ri Genre: Jazz Release Date: 24 April 2012 Attributes: Cd-R ~ Discs:1 ~ Country:Usa Country: USA Label: Folkways Records ( FKWQ ) Product Type: Compact Disc Catalog #: 60005 UPC: 093076000524 Configuration: D: CD Jazz icon Louis Armstrong, always the consummate entertainer, turned a 1971 award ceremony at the National Press Club into an impromptu performance that was one of his last concerts before passing away 5 months later. Joined by longtime band-mates Tyree Glenn and Tommy Gwaltney, Armstrong shows no signs of frailty on classics including “Mack the Knife.” The recording, originally a limited vinyl release by the National Press Club now available widely for the first time in both physical and digital formats, also includes highlights from Glenn's tribute concert to his late friend and teacher one year later. Armstrong often signed letters “Red Beans and Rice-ly Yours,” which makes for an apt title since his favorite recipes are included in the liner notes. 11 tracks, 58 minutes. Track listing: http://www.folkways.si.edu/albumdetails.aspx?itemid=3370 -----Original Message----- From:Chris J Brady A rare recording of one of the last live performances by jazz trumpeter Louis Armstrong has been made public. The move was prompted by the press club discovering a rare LP of the event. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-17873153
