Well, I Should Have... (subtitled Learned How To Play Piano) is an experimental jazz album by American comedy actor H. Jon Benjamin. It was released on November 27, 2015 on the Sub Pop label. 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, and Benjamin has never liked jazz very much. The album's title references Thelonius Monk's jazz standard, Well, You Needn't.
