Interviews with Lil Armstrong...

Recommended Posts

I had a long car ride the other day and extended my sitting time to hear this one (almost) finish. It's from a series of vintage interviews (1957) with Lil Armstrong covering just about everything she experienced first hand, playing piano with, it seems, nearly everyone and everwhere. If you like traditional jazz, or even just want to hear a neat lady tell her stories of what growing up playing jazz was like 100 years ago, it's a good listen. Starts at 38:20 in on this link.

(The radio host, Tom Saunders, intersperses the interview with bits of related music, which you can either listen through or skip over.)
