Your Rating. Please retry. The album belongs to Louis, with his great trumpet and vocals, though there are notable contributions from Armstrong stalwarts Velma Middleton on vocals and Trummy Young on Trombone. And, of course, none of it would have been possible without Handy's rather important contribution. The musicians obviously have a great respect for the music, and, more importantly, seem to be having a great time playing it. Listen free to Louis Armstrong Louis Armstrong Plays W.
