Thomas Fats Waller - Carolina Shout download song

Don't forget Joplin's admonition: "It is never right to play ragtkime fast." Where's the fire?

Man that is a giant sound to come out of one piano and two hands. And one foot.

Great sound on this!

Fats is still the entire package

Recorded on May 13, 1941.

Comparing Waller with Tatum? Like fleas on a dogs back arguing which one owns the dog?

There was only one Waller.

I've always thought Wallers swinging stride piano to be more infectious than Tatum's, who often plays what seems like a million notes at incredible speed. Whilst I listen in amazement to such dazzling displays, the latter rarely induces foot tapping in the way Waller does.

What a genius on the keys...
