Dear Bob,
Ah, the LP. One of 4.
My dear friend Carl Hällström also replied off-list.
I looks like the Jazz Unlimited 3-CD set 'The New and revised  
'Satchmo: A Musical Autobiography' is no longer available from its  
Swedish source.
Worlds Records has some JU CDs, but not that one.
However, a quick 'google' turned up this lead:
   http://www.amazon.com/Satchmo-Musical-Autobiography-Louis-Armstrong/dp/B00005LAND
Part-time DJML-lurker and traveller Jazz Jerry Brown (Jazz 'n' Blues  
Records) may have a few tucked away in his back room.
Although, I doubt it.
It was a very popular and sort-after item when it released.
As me Aussie mate Mick Potter opined: "It is great music and it is  
good to hear Louis talk about his life and music."
Very kind regards,
Bill.
