Milan Entertainment and friends Emmanuel Chamboredon, Russell Ziecker, Jodi Tack and Nancy L. Hopkins put together this one-of-a-kind album - "The Katanga Concert", featuring the live performance of the one and only Louis(Satchmo Pops)Armstrong in Katanga, Africa.
In November 1960, Armstrong and his orchestra embarked for Africa as Honorary Ambassadors of the U.S. State Department. The diplomatic mission in no way dampened Satchmo's usual jovial behavior, nor did it stifle his legendary and natural spontaneity, as is so brilliantly heard on this exuberant performance. Once again, Pops shows every angle of his wonderful talent, always exuding intense emotion whether it be joy ("BLUEBERRY HILL"), or tenderness ("C'EST SI BON"). Louie is ever present on these pieces, but nonetheless he gives way to his fellow-musicians Billy Kyle (piano), Barney Bigard (clarinet), Trummy Young (trombone/vocals), Arvell Shaw (bass), Dany Barcelona (drums) and his longtime friend and vocalist for the band Velma Middleton.
Relive those days with Satchmo playing the blues, jazz and his ever-famous-standards that you long to hear. Know that Pops is up there at those golden gates playing duets with St. Gabriel...they'll never be another, he was an original - SATCHMO!
Total Time: Disc One 45:25 on 11 Tracks/Disc Two 63:12 on 17 Tracks...Milan Records 35908...(2000)

CD1+die Tracks 9-17 wurden im November 1960 in Katanga und Elisabethville in Süd-Afrika gemacht.Die Besetzung steht für die mittlere Zeit der All Stars und entpuppt sich als sehr gut.Es wirkten Trummy Young (Posaune,Gesang),Barney Bigard (Klarinette),Billy Kyle (Klavier),Arvell Shaw (Bass) und Dany Barcelona (Drums) mit.Dazu kommt die Sängerin Velma Middleton.
Die Titel gehören natürlich alle zum üblichen Standard-Material von Satchmo,aber auch die Solisten bekommen zum Glück ihre Auftritte,was später nur noch selten vorkam.
Wenn man eine Schwachstelle dieser "All Stars" suchen möchte,würde ich sofort Sängerin Middleton sagen,aber auch Drummer Dany Barcelona kann mit Sid Catlett oder Cozy Cole nicht im Traum mithalten.Dort hätte man bestimmt auch einen besseren Musiker finden können.Er spielt immerhin solide und isngesamt am Längsten mit Armstrong überhaupt (von 1958-1971).
Die zweite CD beeinhaltet außer dem bereits erwähnten Konzert noch auf den Tracks 1-7 ein Konzert von Nizza/Frankreich vom 17.Mai 1962.Hier spielte eine veränderte Formation,so spielte Joe Darensbourg Klarinette,ein alter New Orleans-Musiker,der auch mit Kid Ory spielte.Dazu kommt Bassist Bill Cronk,auch eher eher ein durchschnittlicher Musiker.
Auf Track 8 handelt es sich um eine Formation,die ab 1967 durch die Welt mit Armstrong zog.Es dürfte sich um die schwächste Besetzung handeln.Es spielen Tyree Glenn (Posaune),Joe Muranyi (Klarinette),Marty Napoleon (Klavier),Buddy Catlett (Bass) und Dany Barcelona Schlagzeug.
Die Aufnahmequalität ist leider nicht auf der Höhe der Zeit,egal bei welchem Datum auch immer.Die vir Sterne vergebe ich auch in erster Linie für die Aufnahmen von 1960,als die Band sehr gut bestezt war und sich auch adäquat präsentierte.
Die besten All Stars hatte Armstrong meiner Meinung nach von 1947-1954.Anschließend begann auf lange Sicht der Abstieg,wenn auch nur langsam.Ohne wirklich erstklassigen Schlagzeuger,oft auch nur mit mittelmäßigen Bassisten,konnte das begonnene Niveau nicht gehalten werden.
Hier haben wir bei den meißten Aufnahmen aber Glück,also vier Sterne von mir.
