>>10172024>Yeah, but you got your Frank Sinatras and others. Lets not just dismiss them because of their skin color, especially when we're talking about jazz,No offense, but Sinatra was not a jazz singer. I am saying this as a massive fan myself who's listened to each of his records from the late 30s to the 90s.
>Louis was a great person, and i enjoy some of his songsLouis's 60s period as a popular singer is generally considered the worst part of his career. You should start with his Hot Five and Hot Seven recordings in the late 20s/early 30s, or his love recordings with his All Stars (Satchmo at Symphony Hall etc.) in the 50s.
