By 1937, Louis Armstrong’s career began to change significantly. His new manager, Joe Glaser, had begun to implement a number of maneuvers to increase Louis’ exposure, and in the process, his income.
It was a long time coming, and it was wonderful for Louis to finally have some pocket money (he was only the most artistically important musician in the world at this time!), but the effect this had on his artistry (or his personal integrity) was much more ambiguous. Movies and radio were the two mediums that Glaser pursued, with mixed results. Today’s show focuses on those results.
