We’re wishing Mr. Louis Armstrong a very happy 120th birthday!
Let’s celebrate by listening to him jam with the one and only Ella Fitzgerald with “It Ain’t Necessarily So” from “Let’s Do It: The Best of the Verve Years.

Let us celebrate the 122nd birthday of Mr. Duke Ellington by listening to Caravan!
