He preceded Oscar as pianist for Jazz at the Philharmonic. Of the 3 great Detroit near-contemporaries--Hank, Barry Harris and Tommy Flanagan--it's a close call. Hank really didn't feature himself as leader until he was 60. All wonderful musicians, but Tommy had a touch that made the piano "breathe."
@HendrixcommaMartin that turnaround (Cmaj7 - Eb7 - Abmaj7 - Db7) "belongs" to Tadd Dameron he used it in a songs that he wrote like Lady Bird and Casbah. Trane extended this and got Giant Steps.
