[Dixielandjazz] Fats Waller on the Air

[Hans en Corrie]

Most of us are too young to have seen Fats Waller perform -so am I, but his
concerts were indelible events - his swing, his humour and charisma are
legendary. During the 1930s and early 1940s concerts and radio broadcasts
were almost scheduled daily. We still can listen to his records, but only
few radio broadcasts have survived. Thanks to Stephen Taylor, author of the
book Fats Waller on the Air ( The Radio Broadcasts and discography), we can
now enjoy some unreleased 1938 broadcasts. Great stuff .........
