El melodrama del romance imposible entre un dueño de casino y una cantante sirve de telón de fondo para presentar una sucesión de canciones y estándares clásicos del jazz y el blues.Con Louis Armstrong y la mismísmia Billie Holiday aportando actuaciones y números musicales como Farewell to Storyville y la canción que da título al musical. Imperdible.

New Orleans is a 1947 musical drama featuring Billie Holiday as a singing maid and Louis Armstrong as a bandleader; supporting players Holiday and Armstrong perform together and portray a couple becoming romantically involved. During one song, Armstrong's character introduces the members of his band, a virtual Who's Who of classic jazz greats, including trombonist Kid Ory, drummer Zutty Singleton, clarinetist Barney Bigard, guitar player Bud Scott, bassist George "Red" Callender, pianist Charlie Beal, and pianist Meade "Lux" Lewis. Also performing in the film is cornetist Mutt Carey and bandleader Woody Herman. The music, however, takes a back seat to a rather conventional plot. The movie stars Arturo de Cordova and Dorothy Patrick, features Marjorie Lord, and was directed by Arthur Lubin.
Holiday has three songs, "Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans," "Farewell to Storyville," and "The Blues Are Brewing," all of which are pleasant enough, but none of them really catches fire. What really makes the film worth seeing, or rather hearing, is Louis Armstrong. We hear on the soundtrack bits and snatches of many of his most famous numbers, including "West End Blues," "Basin Street Blues," "Mahogany Hall Stomp," "Dipper Mouth Blues," and "I Thought I Heard Buddy Bolden Say." There's also some excellent clarinet from Barney Bigard, and boogie-woogie legend Meade Lux Lewis has a cameo doing a few choruses of "Honky-Tonk Train Blues." Armstrong pretends to play the cornet on these numbers, because he didn't switch to trumpet until after he left New Orleans. However, to my inexpert ears, at least, it sounds as though he's really playing a cornet on "Dipper Mouth Blues," in salute to his mentor, Joseph "King" Oliver. We never get to hear enough of Armstrong, but if you care about his music it's touching to see him paying tribute to his early days as a musician.
