[Dixielandjazz] SATCHMO wins again!

[Bob Romans]

Today my wife, Carole, and I plus two musician friends went to SBC Park in San Francisco to watch the Giants play the Kansas City Royals. (Giants won, 9-7)
Between the 2nd and 3rd inning, on the jumbo screen in center field the question was asked..
"Which of the following songs do all of you fans want to hear during the 3rd inning break"?
1. (A popular tune that everyone seemed to know, by a R&R star.)
2. ANOTHER  one just like number 1.
3. Louis Armstrong's "What A Wonderful World", done by HIM!!
Winner would be chosen by the applause meter.
1 and  2 got a smattering of applause, and number 3?
A ROAR of applause! Satchmo has been dead for...how many years? He IS the KING! Long live the KING!
Warm regards,
Bob Romans
