The Panic Is On: 1923-1943 is a spectacularly expansive, historically monumental, and masterfully synchronized archival double-disc retrospective celebrating the foundational creative genius of the legendary American keyboard vanguard titan, vocalist, and pioneering entertainer Thomas "Fats" Waller, released in 2005 by the premier independent French historical preservation imprint Le Chant Du Monde. Spanning over two and a half hours of breathtakingly vibrant, heavily syncopated acoustic piano, organ, and small-combo interactions across 50 definitive tracking alignments, this high-fidelity document serves as an absolute pinnacle monument in early-20th-century jazz archaeology. Moving completely past generic "greatest hits" configurations, this intelligent collection bypasses standard commercial novelties to lay bare the transcendent, formidable piano genius behind Waller’s humorous showman persona, tracing his development from early 1920s piano rolls to his final iconic studio entries in 1943.
