Louis Armstrong. Satchmo. Ambassador Satch. The man who defined American jazz for more than 60 years with his trademark humour, virtuosity and sheer brilliance. The man who appeared in Hello Dolly and High Society, who played the theme music for the James Bond movie On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

Other jazz musicians wanted to be him; audiences idolised him. He is a true legend in the histry of music. And now James Morrison, our very own jazz virtuoso par excellence, pays tribute to this mightiest of jazzmen with some of Satchmo's greatest hits.
