If I'm not mistaken, this version was recorded on August 5, 1932, while the one on 'Piano Starts Here' was recorded on March 21, 1933.
If it weren't EARLY Art Tatum, I'd say it was a poor imitator (though I'd watch out!). At this stage it doesn't sound as if Tatum could process all of the ideas in his head, but was 'told' he only had 1:58 to record this regardless.
You might want to look for the CD 'Piano Starts Here: Live at the Shrine/Zenph Re-Performance' for a real LIVE version!
i wonder who the morons are who gave it low ratings...i mean i don't mind if you hatin, go ahead but it's an unwritten rule to respect tatum's music. i mean you should know better than that.
this song should be on family guy when peter is chasing stewie xD
