[Dixielandjazz] Re: Armstrong West End Blues

[Robert Smith]

Hello Luis,

It seems to me that less than one year after recording the first WEB, Louis 
went over to big band jazz of a more commercial nature. Then, apart from a 
few diversions, stayed with this type of music until the jazz revival began 
to change the course of jazz in 1939. It also seems that he kept the earlier 
tunes that were more amenable to swing treatment in his repertoire during 
the 1929-1939 period: Mahogany Hall Stomp, Big Butter And Egg Man, Basin 
Street Blues, etc.

Cheers

Bob Smith
