Who is Tin channeling?

For a period of time if you asked Tin his name he would reply with conviction, “Louis Armstrong.” But now I’m starting to wonder just who or how many now gone musicians this little boy is channeling. QED (quod erat demonstrandum) this is Jewel Brown singing with Louis Armstrong, When the Saints Go Marchin In. She is fabulous by the way and we watch this video over and over again as Tin wakes up asking for it.

So when the other day I was putting him to bed and he wiggled out of my lap and got down on the ground and started wah wah wa ah’ing like Brown in that video, hips and all, I couldn’t help but fall over laughing. So last night, we filmed him in his crib again, naturally I was late to get the camera, but you get a good idea of what is going on. He starts off singing When the Saints, a la Armstrong, moves into wiggling his hips and that wah wah wa ah of Brown, and then segues into Armstrong on the trumpet, and then moves over to Trummy Young on the trombone.
