I don't think my playing style has really changed over the years; it's just gotten better. I can hear the improvement in comparing older records and later records.

It also has to do with ideas - learning how to edit your ideas and being better able to follow ideas out to a logical conclusion.

The Armstrong record that I personally like the most, is a recording of a song by Harold Arlen called, "I Got a Right to Sing the Blues" . Most of Armstrong's solos tended to stick pretty close to the melody. But for some reason, it's like he let go of the tether and suddenly he's playing this beautiful high, almost abstract line that's floating above the beat. I compare it to the way that a 19th century operatic tenor might have sang an Aria because he's just completely let loose of the background and he's making this magic sort of flying above the staff.
