I found it a rarity to see Armstrong and Cash perform together. That has to be a piece of music history as the people I have mentioned it to did not know either that they ever were on the same stage together.

He kept his horn straight and never puffed out his cheeks as some do. You will notice the "teardrop" on his top lip. That's from blowing the horn. What a great player he was and he seemed to have such a wonderful personality.
