John Coltrane turns 100 on Wednesday, and the Hollywood Bowl gives the night to Wynton Marsalis, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and Lakecia Benjamin. Today's record is Louis Armstrong's hit years, and Sekou tells how a show tune three record companies turned down ended the Beatles' run at number one. | The Lead: John Coltrane turns 100 on Wednesday, and the Hollywood Bowl anchors the centennial with Wynton Marsalis, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and the Los Angeles premiere of "Coltrane 100: Legacy," while the Dix Hills house gets ready to open. Listen to This: "Hello, Louis! The Hit Years, 1963 to 1969" on Hip-O Select, where track one of disc one is "Hello, Dolly!", plus Meshell Ndegeocello's all duets record "Synonym" on Blue Note. The Bridge: A show tune three record companies turned down, and a composer who said "My God, no" when he heard Louis Armstrong would record it. Then "Hello, Dolly!" ended the Beatles' run at number one on Billboard. On the Road: The ticket is the Jaik Hakkarinen Quintet's debut album release at Dazzle in Denver, with Baltimore, Washington, Chicago and New York in the sweep, and Philadelphia closed on Sundays. One More Note: On September 20, 1935, Mosaic's discography logs Mildred Bailey and Her Swing Band in New York, with Chu Berry, Teddy Wilson and Red Norvo on one title. | The Daily Quintet is an AI-crafted production, researched and checked by humans.
