Team Pop Trivia

This week's winner: Metalheads represent! We got a huge response to last week's question. Most knew Ronnie James Dio in 1979 was the first singer to replace Ozzy Osbourne in Black Sabbath, but only lucky Stephanie Anderson of Largo was randomly drawn for the Weekend T.
This week's question: Bravo to New Orleans mayor Marc Morial, who had the good sense to rename the city's airport the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport after the great jazz trumpeter. Armstrong accidentally invented scat singing in the studio during a 1926 recording of a now famous song. Armstrong's sheet music fell from his music stand, so he improvised by "singing" the musical parts. To get your name in the random drawing, tell me what song Armstrong was recording.
