"I see trees of green, red roses too...And I think to myself what a wonderful world."
"My whole life, my whole soul, my whole spirit is to blow that horn," Louis Armstrong told a doctor a few months before he died in 1971. No, he wouldn't cancel an upcoming date at the Waldorf-Astoria. "The people are waiting for me," he said. "I got to do it, Doc, I got to do it."
"He left an undying testimony to the human condition in the America of his time"
- -- Wynton Marsalis
You have to see it for yourself, it is beyond adequate description:
Imagine a world where we spent more time creating, than making bombs or prosecuting war. How would the people feel?
