Upcoming Louis Armstrong on Music Masters

[EKE BBB]

Interviewed for Marc Myers' Jazz Wax blog, Dan Morgenstern reports he is currently writting liner notes for an upcoming 2 CD set on Music Masters with Louis Armstrong recordings from a 1937 NBC radio show. Many of the 24 tracks on the first CD have never been released before in any format—not even as bootlegs. The second CD features home recordings from Louis’ private tapes, including some music and conversation. The set is due early next year.

Or you could wait for Frémeaux's Intégrale series to reach 1937... -_-

Yes, had meant to post this news myself--thanks for passing it along. BTW Marc is doing fantastic work with that blog--I know a # of Big O posters have checked it out already, but if you haven't, pay him a visit.
