TV station That's 3 is now rebranding as That's Christmas. Only 2 months early.

But it also has, on a nightly basis, Harry Worth, Kenny Everett, Benny Hill & Only When I Laugh so it can't be all bad.

I love Satchmo and 'swing.

I love Satchmo and 'swing.

The man was pure genius. Can't remember what year it was now, but we went to the unique showing of a live concert projected onto the screen of our local Ritz cinema, and I remember how thin and frail he looked.

This track never fails to bring a lump to my throat and tear in my eye, when he starts singing at about 2 mins then finishes at about 5 and acknowledges the appreciative audience

Live from 1947 and god how I wish I could have been there

Louis Armstrong and the All Stars 1947, with the fabulous Jack Teagarden on trombone
