Thanks for the History lessons!
-
Teach!
-
His relation with the Tristano gang is so rare and great.
-
A very great man! Billy Taylor, one of the most underrated in jazz-history.
-
Another great video! Thanks!
-
Agreed, Taylor's very underappreciated, just listen to the beauty of his playing here on this video - lovely stuff.
-
Thanks! Now I need to find these chords!!!

Billy is so underappreciated--partly because it's too much to expect the jazz elite to find an intellectual, genteel person like him to be a soulful musician as well. Listen to him breathe as he solos (on yet another out-of-print album) on "Midnight Piano." No one plays deeper into the blues.
