@diegocostarica21 I've heard of him. Thanks. What do you think of Adam Macowicz?

"Super lame" is a bit harsh. I would say that most people who know much about piano would at least say that Tatum was the greatest. Horowitz though he was great. Brubeck said that he was like a Mozart. You don't hear those pianists talked about as much as the ones that I mentioned. My opinion is based on fact. I play the piano and have listened to those whom you have mentioned. Those pianists are very good, but clearly not great geniuses. Monk was not a great piano player.

@MrRickywallace Everybody has his taste, you obviously are keen to technique and stand alone players, so OK. But, to say monk, tristano or hines are not geniuses is just super lame.Very Good Artists are the guys from today, which take their ideas from the past. Back then,guys like monk were misunderstood and just because they are not so well known, doesn't mean they are not at par with your favourite. I'll just say that Tatum owned every record that Hines made and improvised over his music daily

@alexjrmarino They are very good artists, but not great geniuses. Evans, Peterson, Tatum, and Garner are in a class of achievement all by themselves, kind of like the Chopins, Franz Lizsts, and Rachmaninoffs of jazz piano. Listen to the Chopn and Keats-like lyricism of Evans, the great touch, ryhthm of Tatum and Peterson, plus the melodic gifts of all of them. I've listened to them for more than forty years and am still in shock from their great abilities.

à chaque fois que je ré-écoute ce chef d'oeuvre j'ai à nouveau la gorge qui se noue d'émotion. Je n'ai jamais rien entendu de pareil sur terre.
what an emotion, it's my verry best. God bless who posted this video !

@dissidencello C'est clair !

Un génie du piano probablement habité par l'âme d'un Mozart ou d'un Chopin venue se réincarner en lui et éclater en supernovæ.
C'est l'extase. Je deviens vraiment fan depuis que je l'ai découvert il y a quelques jours.

His infallable ear creates secondary chords of impecable beauty and rightness, Wow, what a talent.
