1924-1925
Fletcher Henderson & His Orchestra |
 Released November 12, 1924 - November 16, 1925
This excellent European LP contains 14 performances (including three alternate takes) from Armstrong's period with Fletcher Henderson's orchestra. Most of these selections are fairly rare (such as "My Rose Marie," "Twelfth Street Blues" and "Me Neenyah") and only one performance is duplicated from the CD Fletcher Henderson (1924-1927). Almost all of these cuts have memorable Louis Armstrong solos that easily take honors and are state-of-the-art for 1925. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
