Louis Armstrong, prezývaný Satchmo či Pops, bol americký jazzový trumpetista a spevák z New Orleansu. Patrí medzi najvýznamnejšie postavy jazzovej histórie 20. storočia, vytvoril osobitý štýl sólovej improvizácie a spopularizoval spevácku techniku scat.
Album Vocal Duets na LP predstavuje Armstrongove duety so špičkovými umelcami svojej doby. Na šestnástich skladbách sa stretáva s Ellou Fitzgerald (Summertime, Cheek To Cheek, Dream a Little Dream of Me), Billie Holiday (My Sweet Hunk O' Trash, Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans?), Bingom Crosbym (Gone Fishin', Dardanella), Frankom Sinatrom (Ad-Lib Blues, The Birth of the Blues) a ďalšími hviezdami jazzu a populárnej hudby.
