Oh man oh man - my mp3 player is now full of Louis Armstrong - Thank you again, [livejournal.com profile] innocentsmith! :D I have the Velma Middleton & Louis Armstrong version of St. Louis Blues and what? It sounds exactly like the version I used to listen to as a kid at my grandparent's house, to a point. My brother and I used to sing it together and you have never seen anything as cute as a little boy imitating Louis Armstrong, I swear. :) But then there's two more verses which weren't on the vinyl my grandmother had. Velma sings that she's not too fine, but all the boys like her 'cause she takes her time, and then Louis laughingly threatens to beat her around the head with a fence picket. Maybe they shortened it for families!

Maybe it was trimmed for length? There are a couple bonus tracks on that CD, so maybe your grandparents had a radio-cut version or something.

And you're welcome!
