″A brown derby hat, set at an acute angle, a smile as wide as the Hudson river, and the inevitable cigar, are the hallmarks of a successful caricature of the immortal Thomas ‘Fats’ Waller… But here is music that will never date or die, and a new album of his piano compositions is always welcome.” (Publisher)

″Thomas Wright ‘Fats’ Waller (May 21, 1904 – December 15, 1943) was an American jazz pianist, organist, composer, singer, and comedic entertainer. His innovations in the Harlem stride style laid the groundwork for modern jazz piano. His best-known compositions, ‘Ain’t Misbehavin’ and ‘Honeysuckle Rose’, were inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1984 and 1999.” (Wikipedia)
