This is a great album, jazz done by some not traditionally associated with jazz (Pete Seeger, Merle Haggard, and Steve Earle for example) and they sang and played with style. However, I really don't believe Louis Armstrong traveled to New Orleans during the last year. Hey, is that Elvis I see over there? :)
