Ubu, thanks for pointing out the previous thread which I missed when I was away from the Board. Still waiting for some advisory about the audio...

I Got Rhythm is on CD1 of the 3-CD set 'The Complete Louis Armstrong, Vol. 6' out of the Frémeaux collection, as legitimate as any of the Sony releases A beautiful collection!

Has anybody heard any of these reissues yet? http://acerecords.co.uk/boplicity-label Are they as good as it says?

Nothing to substantiate that rumor so far! Would hate to see that in the next few years! Love the man and the singer! May Herb Jeffries live another century... Edit to add: Just found this article on our man turning 100. http://www.mydesert.com/article/20130923/LIFESTYLES0111/309230018/Bruce-Fessier-100-age-just-number-jazz-legend-Herb-Jeffries Glad to see he is very much alive, and well...

Variations on this album came in various colours. Never cared much for Mme. Ardisson 'music'! And please don't mention her husband TV producer Thierry A. when I'm around

Summer is back in Paris with a warm 77°F (25°C) that called for a walk through the streets of the city. Same expected tomorrow, then back to Autumn!
