Yet Waller was as vital during this period, as both a piano player and singer, as he'd been in the late `20s and early '30, as evidenced by these recordings of signature songs like "Ain't Misbehavin'" and "Honeysuckle Rose" and classic party numbers like "You're a Viper (the Reefer Song)." The five discs that make up VOL. 6 are as essential as any in his catalogue, and few performers--even decades later--have matched his exuberance and skill as an entertainer.
