Klappentext

In Stomp Off, Let's Go, author Ricky Riccardi offers a fresh take on the most widely discussed period of Louis Armstrong's life. Tracing the trumpeter's meteoric rise to fame from childhood in New Orleans all the way to Chicago, where he changed the course of music with the Hot Five and Hot Seven recordings, Riccardi foregrounds the voices of Armstrong and his contemporaries to explore Armstrong's path and relationships more intimately, in turn providing essential insights into how Armstrong rose to become one of America's most beloved icons.
