The Fats Waller Review performs music written and performed by Fats Waller, including such favorites as: Honeysuckle rose, Jitterbug Waltz and Ain’t Misbehaving’. These selections are both performed and sung at the piano by Alvin Waddles, a brilliant baritone and master of stride piano technique. In addition, the show includes such novelty favorites as: Shortinin’ Bread and Your Feet’s Too Big and more favorites from the era. Waddles is joined by the great Charles Gabriel-4th generation New Orleans musician on vocals, saxophone and clarinet, with Marion Hayden on bass and Djallo Keita on drums.
