With this four-disc set of Armstrong's bedrock Hot Fives & Sevens sides, JSP throws down the gauntlet for labels reissuing early jazz (hats off especially to John R.T.

6	The Essential Recordings 1925-1940 (2006) more music like this by Louis Armstrong It's difficult, if not truly impossible, to finitely pick Louis Armstrong's essential recordings, since the man transformed jazz -- and all of pop music -- profoundly in his career, and he didn't do it with one track, or two tracks, or even a dozen tracks; he did it by the sheer accumulation of his playing and singing. That said, this generous ... see all copies from $53.36! new only from $53.36!
7	Complete Hot Five and Hot Seven Recordings [Definitive Classics] (2001) more music like this by Louis Armstrong Louis Armstrong's legendary quintet and septet recordings from the mid-'20s, known as the Hot Five and Hot Seven recordings, may not exactly be ground zero for jazz, but they certainly mark the beginning of jazz as an American music of unique distinction, pointing out as they do the genre's immense possibilities and versatility, and in Armstrong, ... see all copies from $49.61! new only from $49.61!

9	Louis Armstrong & His Hot Five & Hot Seven: 1926-1927 (1926) more music like this by Louis Armstrong & His Hot Five & Hot Seven Louis Armstrong's Hot Five was the most influential jazz band of the mid-'20s. The first volume of Armstrong's complete works reissued by Classics followed this group's trail of recordings from November of 1925 through those made almost exactly one year later. Opening this second volume of vintage Armstrong, the Hot Five's last three records of ... see all copies from $79.95!
