1.0 out of 5 stars
Ridiculously over-filtered sound!,
By Ted Ison (East Coast USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fats & His Buddies (Audio CD)
One must beware of digital restoration from the late '80s and early '90s. That was when it was stylish to show off just how much "noise" could be removed with CEDAR or Sonic Solutions' NO NOISE programs. The trouble is, a lot of the freshness of the music is in the same range as the "noise", and if too much is removed, the songs sound dull and lifeless. This entire CD is very difficult for me to listen to for that reason. I have scratchy 78s of many of these, and even with the scratch, they sound SOOOOO much better than this early attempt at digital restoration. Sorry, my copy will be on ebay next week.

If you can find a copy of this scarce CD, go out and buy it. It's joyful music by various groups led by Fats Waller but featuring jazz greats like Jabbo Smith,James P.Johnson and Garvin Bushell notwithstanding Fats himself, of course. Wow! On the up tempo numbers, those guys swung like crazy.
