@KawhackitaRag and how could I forget Fred Elizalde?
I think Hines, Morton, Schutt, and Elizalde were possibly the four greatest recorded jazz pianists of the 1920s, with a few others coming close (notably James P. Johnson, Rube Bloom and Jimmy Blythe).
Go to Youtube's search box and put in Fred Elizalde and you will find a bunch of his solo jazz piano recordings from the 1920s posted by jazzgirl1920s. I don't know why they have mostly never been reissued on CD, it's a crime.

oops I forgot Jelly Roll Morton, he's in there too. In fact, I hear quite a lot of Jelly Roll in this.

DAMN!
Now, I have not read Earl Hines' biography, so some of this is aural guesswork, but Johnny Walters, Luckey Roberts, James P. Johnson, Zez Confrey, Jimmy Blythe, Alex Hill, Kline Tyndall, Teddy Weatherford, Arthur Schutt, Irving Brodsky, and Rube Bloom: they're all grist for Hines' mill.
What is amazing that he comes out of these influences sounding simultaneously like all of them and like none of them.... that is his genius!
Plus his musical ideas are complex and brilliant.

One of the true greats. I never tire of listening to his phrasing: what a touch.
Thanks for the posting.

Hines always puts a smile on my face, especially when he plays stride piano. The sheer invention and audacity he displays places him as one of the towering figures of 20th century jazz.
