Louis Armstrong, Satchmo vagy Pops becenéven ismert amerikai dzsessz-trombitás és énekes a 20. század egyik legjelentősebb dzsesszalakja. Egyedi szólóstílust teremtett improvizációival, valamint népszerűvé tette a sajátos vokális stílust, a scat éneklést.
Az Original Album Classics: The Okeh, Columbia & RCA Victor Recordings 1925–1933 című válogatás 2014-ben jelent meg a Columbia kiadónál 5 CD-n, és 94 felvételt tartalmaz Armstrong korai korszakából. Rögzíti a három meghatározó kiadó – az Okeh, a Columbia és az RCA Victor – számára végzett munkáját, és bemutatja a dzsessz fejlődését formatív időszakában. A kiemelkedő dalok között szerepel a West End Blues, a Basin Street Blues, a St. James' Infirmary vagy a Weather Bird (Rag).
