I remember when my parents bought a box set of LPs with songs by famous performers. The two that really got to me were "I Have a Right to Sing the Blues" by Cab Calloway and "It's a Sin to Tell a Lie" by Fats Waller and his Rhythm. I listened to both tracks repeatedly and learned the lyrics, at least the ones that I could understand. I went looking for more music by both men, but I found more by Waller. I'm sorry I never took piano lessons.
I learned that he was a great performer, pianist, organ player, singer and entertainer. I'm sorry he died at 39. "One never knows, do one?"
