The Nice Jazz Festival, held annually since 1948 in Nice, on the French Riviera was “the 1st jazz festival of international significance.” At the inaugural festival, Louis Armstrong and his All Stars were the headliners “the biggest, flashiest, and most prestigious jazz festival in Europe.” Armstrong was recorded on February 22, 1948. This is basically the same band that appeared on his unforgettable Town Hall and Symphony Hall concerts. However, you would never know it, the musicians were totally uninspired. Add the fact that the acetate masters have deteriorated badly over the years; you have, at best, a rare performance. Even the flashy drumming of big Sid Catlett and Satchmo’s genius couldn’t save it.

Critics have retrospectively declared Rio Duran Duran's finest work. [k] Beyond the 2000s, commentators agreed the album has aged well, [l] with AllMusic's Ned Raggett asserting that "its fusion of style and substance ensures that even two decades after its release it remains as listenable and danceable as ever". [65] Zaleski argued that the band's use of basic instrumentation ensured Rio sounded more timeless than other albums of the time. [9] In The Quietus, John Freeman concluded that over 30 years after its release, Rio "encompasses all anyone needs to know about Duran Duran". [21] In 2015, Record Collector 's Mark Elliot deemed it a "seminal 80s classic" and a record that displays a band figuring out their sound, growing in confidence and "setting to conquer the world". [51] Chris Ingalls of PopMatters agreed, referring to it as "an iconic statement of its times" and one that rewards repeated listens. [74] a b c d e Elliot, Mark (15 July 2015). " Rio: Duran Duran".

In 1948, the Nice Opera House hosted the city’s first Jazz Festival. Jazz legends such as Louis Armstrong, Stéphane Grappelli, and Django Reinhardt have all appeared at the festival. The Rio guitar has two logos styles: the first was created by Django and Sarane for the Casa Grande and the second by Cavelli for the Rio. The Comité in Nice established a jazz festival in 1948 as part of a larger project to raise the profile of the city on the international scene.
