Louis Armstrong - What a wonderful world ( 1967 )


This is beautiful.  Song is written by Bob Thiele and George David Weiss and recorded originally by Louis Armstrong.  It had been offered to Tony Bennet who turned it down.  It was actually initially more popular in England than the United States.  However it has since been added to the Grammy Hall of Fame.  Other artists have also performed this song, but the original version is considered the best.  I so love the trombone playing in this.  It is incredible.
