Louis Armstrong was the first jazz superstar, a trumpeter, singer, and occasional actor who became a global American icon. Duke Ellington didnt lead the most popular orchestra of the Swing era, but he led one of the most creative, and his popularity–and creativity–far outlasted the days of the big bands. In 1961, the Duke sat in with Armstrongs band, and the two got down to some serious good-time nostalgia. The session is a relaxed yet spirited one, with the leaders alternating between each others best-known songs. One of the best things about this configuration is the sound of the Dukes piano–an underrated pianist, he seldom recorded in such an intimate context. http://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Armstrong
