  • @KingRat355 that was "Tiger Rag" played by Art Tatum~

  • Was this piece that scared Oscar.

  • This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard! Sad to hear about Fats... maybe he was in the studio "assisting" James P. in spirit?

  • That is a very tricky Rag (Stride)!

  • I used to have this 78 -- on Blue Note, as I remember.  I also remember that it and three others were recorded on December 15, 1943, the very same day that Fats Waller died on a train headed back to New York from California. Odd coincidence.

  • yes yes yes thnank you thank you thank you!!!
