My One And Only Love Art Tatum & Ben Webster

[laura835]

Music to fall in love with.

[plattermatter111]

I first viewed this several years back. Sincere thanks to original poster. Have sent this along to numerous friends in the interim who I know consider 'jass' not unlike foreign language with always positive response. I return to it often. It struck me recently that the last 10 seconds, where Tatum reprises melodic theme toward ending ... and you know this was extempore ... may just be the best 6th of a minute I've ever heard played on the instrument.

One person has no one to love.

[paulostroff99]

Art Tatum was the best pianist ever and Ben Webster was one of the few in the league with Charlie Parker and Sonny Rollins.

[woodlist]

@Bluntboar

Okay I'll make up my mind. It's genius; it wrenches at my soul in a fashion mere words can't describe. And you can read what you like into that my fine friend.

it is said that fats waller was performing in a night club, and, art tatum walked in. fats stood up and said to the crowd, "ladies and gentleman, i play the piano, but tonight God is in the house."

Genius. There is a guy in Glasgow who can play like Art. He's a resident at the Baby Grand restaurant at Charing Cross, and has been for 25 years. Should jot the guy. Never wondered why he did not put some of his stuff on the tube. Still, the runs are the mark of the master, and the master is Tatum.

[amendoesit]

My life is infinitely richer because of this music. Really.

[mag959jo]

Perfect melodical lines with sophisticated slow swing in a fantastic teamwork of piano and tenor. Johan.

so sad! :user:

[AjiSabaki]

I am working on a posting about the many varied tones of the saxophone. With Webster I need to provide two examples, the breathy sound of his ballads and the gruff sound (caused by singing while playing) that got him the nickname of the Brute. But I made room by omitting the hack Paul Gonsalves though it might be good to include him so people can see what a 3rd rate saxophonist sounds like.

The World won't see their like again...too much talent to take in
