Three Wishes
When asked, Louis Armstrong had three wishes he told to Pannonica:
- “One year off my horn to listen to all the tapes I’ve colected and index them, so I can write a few things. The rest will do me good”
- “That I go back to the world and see the fans, and play for them again.”
- “That I live a hundred years, so I can enjoy what the next generation’s doing, same as I do this one.”
