Here’s Louis’s catalog page: LAHM 1987_2_23~227Īnd now the audio, which is broken into three parts. We’ll dive right in with Monday’s show, which aired May 25, 1970. Here’s Douglas’s person inscription, made up entirely of song titles: LAHM1987_08_57_002Īnd here’s a great photo of Armstrong and Douglas to get the ball rolling: LAHM1987_08_57_005 Here’s the cover, which Louis numbered as Scrapbook 5: LAHM1987_08_57_001 In this 1969-1971 time period, Armstrong also got inspired to create scrapbooks again we’ve discussed a few of them in detail here and will be including all of the images in the Mike Douglas scrapbook in this post. We feel it’s a small price to pay to be able to hear content that has been languishing on Louis’s tapes and only made available to researchers who made the trek to our Archives at Queens College over the past 30 or so years!) In June 1970, with the sessions for Louis Armstrong and His Friends behind him, Armstrong set about dubbing the audio of his week co-hosting Douglas’s show–and today we are sharing watermarked audio of all of it! (We’ve explained it in the past but in case this is your first time here, we don’t own the rights to these episodes so you’ll hear a subtle beep every 20-30 seconds throughout to prevent any unauthorized or commercial uses without contacting the original rights holders. When the week was over, the Mike Douglas people gave Louis a scrapbook of photos from the week and eventually sent him tapes of the audio of each show in full, occasionally with short post-credits discussions and other off-camera bits of business. The episodes were finally edited together and shown on television the week of May 25, airing a new show every day between Monday the 25th and Friday the 29th.

So they split it up to one day a week for five weeks, which will turn out just the same, when they splice that sh-t together.
They figured’ everyday for five days would be a little rough for My Buns. Let’s not waste any more time and jump right in!īack when we covered Reel 83, we shared a letter Louis Armstrong wrote to bassist Arvell Shaw on Apin which we said, “Lucille + I have been going to Philadelphia, one day a week as Co’Host on the Mike Douglas T.V.

But this might be our most action-packed post in this series yet as it will include almost six hours of audio, plus we’re throwing in an entire scrapbook worth of photos at no extra cost. Our previous installment was a bit of a transitional one, with Louis preparing for the recording of Louis Armstrong and His Friends, re-dubbing materials from tapes sent to him by engineer Tony Janak, and copying a tape trumpeter Jimmy Owens gave him at the May 29 And His Friends recording session.
