| Description |
This third volume of the complete Waller edition charts our hero’s progress from November 1934 to August 1936. Here we see the emergence of Fats, the larger-than-life entertainer, he of the relentless swing, utter mastery of his craft and unfailing good humor. And, my word, did he need that humor, given some of the less than first rate material he had to record. Funny thing is, it doesn’t seem to make much difference. The master takes us into in confidence, playing unpromising material and masterpiece alike for all they are worth, but with a knowing wink which says “Hey, let’s have a party!”
The two years covered here are among the most productive of Fats’ career. This is when he made his historic recordings of My Very Good Friend The Milkman, I’m going To Sit Right Down And Write Myself A Letter and I’m Crazy ‘Bout My Baby among many others. Also includes a recently surfacing unissued take of Lulu’s Back In Town. |
