Fats Waller - Piano Solos 1929-1941 flac album

Fats Waller Piano Solos (1929-1941). One of the most important of jazz pianists, Fats Waller blended the stride style of his early influence James P. Johnson with his own refined sense of melody and dynamics. Beneath all the comical vocalizing on his many combo sides, one often could overlook Waller's incredible facility at the keys. As adept as stride masters like Willie "The Lion" Smith but not quite as impressive as Art Tatum, Waller could have even done without such a masterful touch at the piano, considering his rich store of songs and Broadway shows like Hot Chocolates
