Centennial Celebration of Jazz Legend Fats Waller

Published May 20, 2004 at 11:00 PM CDT

Friday would have been the 100th birthday of pianist, singer and songwriter Fats Waller. Critic Jim Fusilli says that a new CD collection commemorating Waller (Fats Waller: Centennial Collection, RCA Records, 2004) is good, but he wishes there were more.
