travel.”—Jazz documentary producer Ken Burns

with a little dip in their hip. Before Louis Armstrong, the world was definitely

square, just like Christopher Columbus thought.”—Trumpet legend Hugh Masekela

“What was the greatest band of the 20th century? Forget the Beatles - it was Louis

Armstrong’s Hot Five and its subsequent incarnation, the Hot Seven... these bands

altered the course of popular music.”—Playboy magazine
