I must accede to some criticism, and so I have altered my opinion and agree that Chick is both an innovator and an original pianist, though not as revolutionary as Bud, or Bill Evans or McCoy Tyner. Art Tatum was in a category by himself and certainly ranks as one of the greatest, if not the gre...

Phrasing is fucked up, probably because it is not in her native tongue. this is not a bossa.

You can't play the phrasing on this song unless you really know what you are doing. Great lyric.

@AljoshaKaramazov What does that have to do with H.'s performance? Anyway, few people ever heard Chopin play in public because he was afraid to play out or maybe because George Sand walked away with his balls.

  Definitely one of the greatest recorded solos in the history of jazz. I here a lot of Bird in this solo and I would assume Lennie had a close relationship with him. He was supposedly going to play with Bird's group in Boston on a gig in 1955 just before Bird died.

All of Me. Tristano seems to be a cross between Robert Deniro, Dracula, and maybe with a touch of Frankenstein as well. I like "Line Up " (same thing) better but it is interesting to hear him live in a club.

About this user

Jon Weiss began his professional career while still in college in the mid-1970s in upstate New York. After being graduated with a M.A. in music composition from SUNY Buffalo, he continued to live in the upstate area began teaching music at SUNY Geneseo. During this period he played most of the local jazz clubs in Buffalo and Rochester and performed and toured around the area with saxophonists Dexter Gordon, Flip Phillips, and Spider Martin. Mr. Weiss moved back to the New York City area (he originally hails from New Rochelle, NY) in late 1979. After successfully relocating to an apartment in Manhattan, Jon embarked on a period of touring and road work. First he joined guitarist Melvin Sparks Blues Band. Subsequently he went on to tour with vocalist Arthur Prysock and his brother, saxophonist Red Prysock, and as music director for musical anomaly Tiny Tim. His touring with TinyTim lead to other opportunities on the Rock Revival circuit. During this period Jon and his group backed and occasionally opened for such acts as, Chubby Checker, the Four Tops, the Brooklyn Bridge, Dell Shannon, and The Platters. More recently Jon has also worked with the Drifters. Although these were not always the greatest of experiences from a musical or artistic standpoint (except for the Platters, which was a truly great act), there was much to be learned about Show Business, professionalism, and performing in front of large audiences. In more recent years, Jon has served as music director and accompanist for the great jazz vocalist Anita ODay. Since 1999, he has hosted a weekly Open Mic at Cleopatras Needle; a jazz club on the New Yorks Upper West Side and has established a formidable reputation as an outstanding accompanist with singers from all parts of the globe. He has performed as a jazz pianist and pianist/vocalist in London, Paris, Zurich, and Istanbul, in the Caribbean and on cruise ships.
