Durium Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 LOUIS ARMSTRONG in BLOKKER On the 10th of May, 1959 the great Louis Armstrong performed at a concert in the small village Blokker for an enthusiastic audience of 8000 men. This concert, now 50 years ago, has become legendary !! In the auction building, where normally apples and pears were sold, of Blokker, a small village between Hoorn and Enkhuizen in the north west part of The Netherlands the Louis Armstrong All Stars performed for the first time in this small rural village. Not the most obvious place for a concert by one of the most famous jazz trumpet players of the world, Louis Satchmo Armstrong himself. How did that happen?
