This collection of live recordings from various 1960s Louis Armstrong concerts features the jazz legend near the end of his career, yet still in fine voice and soloing form on a variety of standards, including "A Kiss to Build a Dream On," "St. James Infirmary" and a relaxed "Cocktails for Two." Also included is his latter-day featured vocalist, Jewell Brown, who performs creditably on "Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man" and "Bill Bailey Won't You Please Come Home."
