This week's soundie is Fats Waller with
a 1941 version of “Ain't Misbehavin'.” According to the man who
posted it, the female vocalist is Vivian Brown, although she is
sometimes misidentified as Myra Johnson.
There is another filmed version of
“Ain't Misbehavin'” on the internet. It's not a soundie, but a
scene from the 1943 musical Stormy Weather.
That's Lena Horne, who acted in the film, seated at the table, and
the tap dancer is Bill “Bojangles” Robinson.
