This is a project to document and clean up as much of the Fats Waller catalog as possible. Fortunately there are a number of dedicated Waller discographers. Stephen Taylor
- The JSP "Complete Recorded Works" boxed sets volumes 2, 5, and 6 need cover art added to fully document recording dates and matrix numbers. I have volumes 1, 3, and 4 and those all have relevant cover art now.
Problematic releases:
- Music Maestro Please (Weton-Wesgram LATA075) has a disc ID but no cover art.
- Ain't Misbehavin' is a 10 track US release dated 2003, with no label information. Any details would be useful.
- Fats Waller and His Rhythm (disc 1) (Australia, CEL Entertainment CEL 111/3) only has 1 of 2 discs.
- The Essential Collection (Avid AVC 878) has cover art with recording dates, but lacks matrix numbers to distinguish alternate takes and vocal vs instrumental versions.
- Lounging at the Waldorf (ABM ABMMCD 1220) has only front cover art, no dates or matrix numbers.
- Ain't Misbehavin' (SMS 20) has cover art sourced from discogs and ebay but no disc ID.
