Louis Armstrong’s Under the Stars was recorded at the same time as his I’ve Got the World On a String. With some great soloing and mellow ballads, Armstrong’s brilliance is hardly more evident than it is on this album. Now available on 200-gram quiex vinyl.

One of the lesser-known Louis Armstrong sets, this album was recorded during the same day that resulted in his similar I've Got the World on a String. The great trumpeter/singer is backed by a string orchestra arranged and conducted by Russ Garcia. He performs eight veteran standards, only one of which ("Body and Soul") was associated with him in the past. Although the accompaniment is pretty straight and unadventurous, it is enjoyable to hear Satch's interpretations of such songs as "Have You Met Miss Jones," "I Only Have Eyes for You," "Home" and "East of the Sun." Many of his trumpet solos during the medium-tempo material are brief but dramatic, and his singing is typically expressive and good-humored.-Scott Yanow, AMG
