Louis Armstrong - The Decca Singles: 1949-1958 (Universal, 2017)

I've been reading Ricky Riccardi's liner notes, published on his blog -- since this was a digital-only release.  It's odd to learn how much this music was denigrated by jazz fans back in the day for being "commercial," lacking jazz bona fides.  That's nuts!  Sure, there's plenty of pop here -- but it's all Louis Armstrong music, which is to say, it's beyond category.

Correct. First release was in Japan. 

ok, thank you, that´s the reason why I had not heard about it. I had his three BN albums from the 1500 series. 
It´s strange that especially in the fifties some temporary BN-Artists all made 3 albums in a short period, and then switched to other labels: 

Curtis Fuller
Johnny Griffin
Clifford Jordan
Paul Chambers

I have the "Two Bones" session as part of the Curtis Fuller Mosaic set.  Not sure which came first, the Mosaic or the Japanese release. Probably the Japanese, as I recall from the Mosaic booklet.  

Listening now:

Yes a good one. Have this CD with a slightly different coverart. ---> "Eight Brothers" is printed in the lower right corner

Here is another from the same source
