Listen to the inimitable Louis Armstrong in one of the songs for which he is famous: What a Wonderful World, written by Bob Thiele and George David Weiss.
This song was recorded in Las Vegas, after Armstrong’s show, in a recording session that ended at 6am, having taken a lot more time than planned. To make sure the orchestra members were paid extra for their overtime, Armstrong accepted only musician’s union rate ($250) for his work.
