fixbutte 3rd Feb 2015		As now added to the notes, this "Ain't Misbehavin'" is not the original piano solo version from 1929 but a vocal version recorded in 1938 in London (Abbey Road studio, in fact) with local musicians. From Fats Waller At The Pipe Organ by Thomas Cunniffe: Waller toured Europe in 1933, 1938 and 1939, and on the last two of these trips, he was invited to record on the Compton theatre organ at London's Abbey Road studio. On the first session, August 21, 1938, Waller recorded six tunes with “his Continental Rhythm”, a band made up of local musicians ... “Don’t Try Your Jive On Me” and two takes of the Waller anthem “Ain’t Misbehavin’” were recorded with the organ before Waller moved to the piano. ... The second take was chosen as the master, and the tempo is noticeably faster and fine on its own terms. In the last eight of his solo chorus here, he bounces the melodic variations between the organ’s three manuals with different registrations used for each. Waller must have sang this song a few thousand times during his career, but he still found fresh ways to sing the lines and to back them up on the keyboard.
