LOUIS ARMSTRONG Great Chicago Concert 1956 3x vinyl 180g 2011 rare MINT UNPLAYED
LOUIS ARMSTRONG The Great Chicago Concert 1956 – MINT AND UNPLAYED! – classic 1956 gig on NEW REMASTERED triple vinyl set, issued 2011
RARE NOW DELETED PURE PLEASURE RECORDS EDITION. On June 1, 1956, Louis Armstrong and his All-Stars played a benefit for multiple sclerosis at the Medina Temple in Chicago. Fifty-five years later, Pure Pleasure has issued a beautiful box set of three 180 gram albums documenting that evening, along with the original liner notes and a remembrance by producer George Avakian.
Due to technical difficulties the recording sat in the tape vaults of Columbia Records, and was not issued on LP until 1980, twenty-four years after the concert. It was not again until 1997 that Columbia saw fit to issue a 2-CD set. At last fourteen years later, Pure Pleasure Records, from England, has given the Chicago concert its proper honor with a remaster by Ray Staff. Staff has done his usual exemplary job and listeners will find the fidelity to be improved, keeping in mind the miking, and concert technical issues that kept this material under wraps for so long. Find out more here.
