...ghetto that, ironically, his music made so fashionable among Cafe Society. Ain't Misbehavin' might have benefited from a few lines providing some insights into Waller's character, or at least some biography. A brief description of Harlem during this period would be a welcome respite from the somewhat relentless pace of the nonstop singing. Nevertheless, Ain't Misbehavin' has plenty of moments you'll wish would never end. At the Wilbur Theater...

SOMETHING HAPPENS when you stay too long in the suburbs. Those inclined to harshness see it as a kind of dry rot, a slow and dusty torpor of the soul that accommodates itself all tooeasilyto the relentless affluence of Scarsdale and Grosse Pointe, to a world of shopping malls and Little League coaches and bitching at the mailman.
