FATS WALLER : THERE’S GONNA BE THE DEVIL TO PAY [1935]

Ένα τραγούδι του μεγάλου Fats Waller.
Θα μπορούσε κάλλιστα να ακούγεται σε σκηνή κλασικού θρίλερ. Το θέμα του όμως αφορά τους ανθρώπους στους οποίους το αφιερώνω.

A song by the great
Fats Waller.
To my ears it would fit fine in a classic thriller’s scene.
But its subject is about the people to whom I dedicate it.

    This is nothing less than the greatest!
    I had a rich … acquaintance, years ago. He had a player piano. He also had a lot of old piano rolls with Fats Waller’s music. He said Fats had punched them himself. ??

    I read an old interview with Fats. It was way before musicians had any publishing rights (seems to be going that way, again). Anyway, he was asked how could he sell his songs right out for $100.00.

    He said I have a family to feed. I also have hundreds more songs in me. (paraphrasing)
