The Blackouts mention performing at a Louis Armstrong show on The Lost Episodes.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Louis Daniel Armstrong (4 August 1901 – July 6, 1971) also known by the nicknames Satchmo, for satchel-mouth, and Pops) was an American jazz musician. Armstrong was a charismatic, innovative performer whose musical skills and bright personality transformed jazz from a rough regional dance music into a popular art form. One of the most famous jazz musicians of the 20th century, he first achieved fame as a trumpeter, but toward the end of his career he was best known as a vocalist and was one of the most influential jazz singers.

Louis Armstrong was also mentioned and thanked in the liner notes of The MOFO Project/Object (2006) album. [1]
