This documentary of Fats Waller's professional life is nicely done. There are a large number of performance numbers taken from various sources. What is particularly good about this DVD is that most of the performances are intact, not cut up or disturbed by overlaid narrater chatter. According to the DVD cover there are 14 performance segments. Listening to Fats is not enough, he is a genuine performer and his face mirrors what he is singing. The documentary is respectful to his memory and his work.

Fantastic footage of Fats. All the classic old tunes. Can't help but put a smile on your dial or a bounce in your step. Bought it for my dad, but the whole family bopped along to it.
