| Louis Armstrong : The Hot Fives and Sevens, Vol. 1,2,3 | |
| Genre: Jazz | Dates: 1925-1926 |
On these recordings, Armstrong taught the jazz world to improvise, the pop world to sing, and the world at large to recognize a true star. As Miles Davis once said, there's nothing that's been played on a trumpet that Louis didn't think of and play first, and his innovations, charisma, and sense of rhythm can even be seen as ancestors of rock and roll.
