Despite the appearance, this elusive Armstrong Hot Five plays very well.  "Irish Black Bottom" is sheer pleasure, with a combination of old Erin, the 1926 hit "Black Bottom" and Armstrong's vocal and trumpet in top form.  Both "Irish Black Bottom" and the flip side, "You Made Me Love You," were recorded on November 27, 1926.  Substantial graying, few light scratches, lam chip NIG, dig on "You Made Me Love You" that passes with my heavy tone arm.   Both sides have some surface noise that is almost overpowered by the intensity of the music.   Condition V--
