What a Wonderful World isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. five years ago, Louis Armstrong briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Cabaret”. This twelve-song debut EP shows the promise that Louis Armstrong has. To me Louis Armstrong is the best band ever.
Cabaret is really the reason why I recommend buying What a Wonderful World. It is succeeded by an outstanding track, however: The Home Fire, which shows, blatantly, how much Louis Armstrong has evolved as a singer. This track is possibly the biggest guilty pleasure on What a Wonderful World. Give Me Your Kisses (I’ll Give You My Heart) is a very good song maybe surprisingly better than you at first might’ve imagined. The Sunshine Of Love is maybe the best thing the group’s ever done. Hello Brother has to be one of the most beautiful tracks on the entire album. The song There Must Be A Way ending is my favorite… so catchy! Fantastic, That’S You as well as many of songs is a short story in miniature. I Guess I’ll Get The Papers (And Go Home) (2:47) - awsome. Hellzapoppin’ I just LOVE this mix!
