Disney Songs the Satchmo Way is a 1968 album of music from Disney films by the trumpeter and singer Louis Armstrong and produced by Tutti Camarata. The album was recorded in Los Angeles at the same time that Armstrong filmed his brief appearance in the film Hello, Dolly!. Disney Songs the Satchmo Way featured Armstrong's last trumpet recordings. Armstrong had been personally asked by Walt Disney to make the album in 1966, although it was not completed until after Disney's death. The Disney music executive Jimmy Johnson recalled that "The dates with Louis were among the happiest I can remember. He had been quite ill but had gone on a rigorous diet. He was very thin but looked well and was full of energy". Armstrong later wrote to Camarata to say that "This goldarned "Wish Upon a Star" is so beautiful and more than that, man – I listen to that tune three or four times a night. Man, did you know I'm a doggoned long-time wishing cat? Well, I am man...I haven't enjoyed anything better than our recording sessions since – well I can't remember when".
