Louis (Satchmo) Armstrong was performing in Detroit, and guested one of our TV shows, while in town.I grabbed a few shots of him on the set, but haven't come across the negs yet, and just shot a framed print I have, on the wall.. Again, it is a 1960's picture, and shot through non reflective glass, so the grain effect is a bit exaggerated.I did the tight shot, to accentuate the lips damage, from all those years of playing the trumpet/coronet.

Great shot! I never knew playing the trumpet would do that to you, even after many years...wow. I'd love to see your other shots of him once you get to the negatives.

if at first you don't succeed, you're about normal.
Nice shot from another pic. He never did keep a stiff upper lip.

A great shot Doug of this famous musician. You are so lucky to have met in person & Louis just happens to be one of my favorite music artists. Very well done.

At first I had to check your age. Yep you are old enough. Excellent caoture. I hope you have more like this. Great work. Respect!

Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.

Wonderful picture of one of the best! I really like the grainy effect for some reason....makes it feel ageless!

Beware the anti-cinnamon stare!!!
Such a great voice God presented this man with. He certainly used his talent well didn't he?. Very nice photo.

What a wonderful world! A kiss to build a dream on. Dream a little dream of me. And I love La vie en rose sung by anybody but Satch gives me chills! Yeah, if you've got jazz in your archives, I'm your girl!
