Thanks.

I wonder if track 14, listed as "Faith Is On", is actually a mishearing of Louis Armstrong's pronunciation of "The Faithful Hussar", a song he featured in concerts for a while? And what is track 4 -- "Crede Jazz"?

I have that On The Road Cd and it is certainly recommended. I think I mentioned this disc in a Laserlight CDs thread here some time ago. The audio quality is fine and the performances seemed fairly representative for an Armstrong concert of that era.

[Rooster_Ties]

I think I used to have a CD with that very cover, what seems like several eons ago -- maybe around 1990-91?

No recollection of it otherwise.

Track 14 is indeed "The Faithful Hussar." Track 4 is "Tiger Rag."

Just how many Armstrong All Star dates do you guys have/need?

Having both Mosaic sets, some glorious studio albums (Plays W.C. Handy, the Ellington encounter), the Storyville sets (the "In Scandinavia", too, hence the plural) ... with Ellington, I'm willing to go on and on and on, to name one example with an even larger amount of stuff available, but with the Armstrong All Stars, I really don't quite know (and frankly, the Storyville set, the large one, does contain a few less-than-great moments - Ricky is fee enough to tell so in his notes).
