Well, I Should Have... (subtitled Learned How To Play Piano) is an experimental jazz[1] album by American comedy actor H. Jon Benjamin. It was released on November 27, 2015, on the Sub Pop label.[2] The album was intentionally recorded to sound bad, since, as the album's title indicates, Benjamin does not know how to play piano, but still does so on the album,[3] and Benjamin has never liked jazz very much.[4]
