Pops A Life Of Louis Armstrong
Pops A Life of Louis Armstrong by the Wall Street Journal's Terry Teachout is now available in paperback from Mariner Books.

Louis Armstrong was the greatest jazz musician of the twentieth century and a giant of modern American culture. He knocked the Beatles off the top of the charts, wrote the finest of all jazz autobiographies—without a collaborator—and created collages that have been compared to the art of Romare Bearden. The ranks of his admirers included Johnny Cash, Jackson Pollock, and Orson Welles. But offstage, Armstrong could be introspective and vindictive. He was almost universally beloved, but had an explosive temper, and a larger-than-life personality far tougher and more sharp-edged than his worshiping fans ever knew.

Terry Teachout, The Wall Street Journal's drama critic and arts columnist, has drawn on a cache of important new sources unavailable to previous Armstrong biographers, including hundreds of private recordings of backstage and after-hours conversations that Armstrong made throughout the second half of his life, to craft a sweeping new narrative biography of this towering figure. - more on this story

Recently Unearthed Victor Argo Film Coming to DVD
(MVD) "Electric Chair", a Bukowski-inspired tale from the New York underground, is a lost independent film, recently unearthed by Wild Eye Releasing and distributed by MVD Entertainment Group.

It was originally a one man show that played off Broadway. Initially, Harvey Keitel was slated for the starring role but due to another personal commitment, he recommended the role to his friend Victor Argo.

In the film, Argo (Ghost Dog, Taxi Driver, True Romance) is a shoe store manager who attempts to revive a failed career as a stand-up comic by performing - thanks to his ex-friend and sometimes agent, Sheldon-at a mysterious club where he finds himself sharing the stage with a looming, ready-to-shock electric chair... and performing before an audience of himself as a young boy, his mother and others from his past. During his nightmare routines, nothing that comes out of his mouth is funny until he turns the comedy on himself. - more on this story
