Ain't Misbehavin' (Hank Jones album)


Ain't Misbehavin is an album by pianist Hank Jones featuring tunes associated with Fats Waller recorded in 1978 for the Galaxy label and released in 1985.

Reception

awarded the album 4 stars, stating: "When this set was recorded, Hank Jones was the pianist in the Broadway show Ain't Misbehavin', a revue that celebrated Fats Waller's music. Jones never sounded like Waller, being a swing-to-bop transition player rather than a stride pianist, and he makes no effort to copy Fats during this brief program....Swinging if not particularly memorable music".
