NotesDigitally remastered and expanded two CD edition of this live release from the Jazz legend. Recorded in 1947 and first issued on Decca in 1951, this set captured one of his greatest performances, for which a legendary edition of his All Stars band joined him, with Jack Teagarden, Barney Bigard, Dick Cary, Arvell Shaw, Big Sid Catlett and singer Velma Middleton. Satchmo at Symphony Hall / 65th Anniversary: The Complete Performances is truly complete, from tuning up to closing theme of both sets performed that night. The limited edition release encompasses two hours of material including 30 minutes of unreleased performances. This release is one of the finest documents of Louis Armstrong's genius, an unbeatable mix of great music and entertaining showmanship and is now in complete form for the first time.
