There's a new book about Louis Armstrong's early years, and the author, Ricky Riccardi, was on the NPR program Fresh Air today. There are selected recordings of his brilliance. You can stream the show here:

They go out on his 1931 recording of "Stardust." It's unique and wonderful. This is real American music.
