Velma Too
`Satchmo" Jazz Concert
Thrills Capacity Crowd
The master showman, Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong, and his All-Stars were in ali their
Dixieland and "pop' glory Sunday afternoon in Recreation Hall.
And no one in the audience could possibly forget the way that big bundle of joy,
Velma Middleton, sang , downed, and shimmied in sequins.
There could have been no doubt in the minds of the audience that Louis, Velma, and
the All-Stars enjoyed performing as much as the audience enjoyed them.
. Besides "Satch" on his ever
thrilling trumpet, there was Ed
mond Hall-on the clarinet, Barret
Deems on the drums, Squire
Gersh, bass; Billy Kale, piano;
Trummy Young, trombone, and
Velma, in a class of her own.
All of Armstrong's All-Stars
drew plenty of their own applause
on solo numbers, but Edmond
Hall probably made the biggest
hit when he made his clarinet
"talk" with his rendition of "You
Made Me Love You."
Drummer Barret Deems also
pleased the audience with his
pounding on anything on the
stage that would make a sound.
The concert, before almost a
capacity house, lasted approxi
mately 2 1 / 2 hours.
It included such Armstrong
standards as "When It's Sleepy
Time Down South," "The Bucket's
Got a Hole in It" and "When the
Saints Go Marching In" to "Ten
derly," "You'll Never Walk
Alone" and "All of Me."
In an interview at intermission,
Armstrong explained how he got
his name "Satchmo."
He said it started out in New
Orleans. his home, as "Satchel
Mouth," and on a tour of England
it was condensed to "Satchmo."
Armstrong said he believes no
musician should be typed as to
one specific type of song or music.
When asked if he wasn't "called
a Dixieland artist." he quipped:
"I don't - know what they call
me. But you should hear some of
the names my wife calls me."
That wife, Armstrong said, was
his fourth.
No famous performer, it seems,
can go through an interview with
out being asked what he would
recommend to someone wanting
to break into show business - .
"Keep your mind on the instru
ment. Don't get carried away
with nothing," he said.
One of his philosophies of life,
he said, was:
"Always cry with a loaf of
bread in your chops."
Or a trumpet? . . .
