In 1925, Armstrong plays faster and higher than any other trumpeter. With his supple and firm lips as well as his exceptional lung capacity, his attack is powerful and sharp, the vibrato is full and fiery, his playing bears a thousand different forms with a deep, radiant and voluminous sonority. This sonority is a world in itself. Apart from the soloist's outlined phrases and with just one note, it comes over as significant, bringing a message from his heart." Lucien Malson"The FrEmeaux & AssociEs Complete Series usually feature all the original and available phonographic recordings and the majority of existing radio documents for a comprehensive portrayal of the artist. The Louis Armstrong series is an exception to the rule in that the selection of titles by this American wizard is certainly the most complete as published to this day but does not comprise all his recorded works."
