Lyrics from King Louis
All Music Guide Review
Simply put, this imported Proper box set -- containing four discs and a lovely booklet -- documents the recordings Louis Armstrong made with His Hot Fives and Sevens between 1923 and 1929, as well as his sides with King Oliver and some as a bandleader after the demise of those bands. It's true, Sony/BMG Legacy has issued a three-disc set of the Hot Fives and Sevens material, but the reach and scope of this set goes a bit farther, costs less, and has better sound. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music Guide
