I've seen so many comments about people saying Oscar is the greatest pianist ever. Oscar always humbly mentioned Art Tatum with reverence. Those stories about Shostakovich, Horowitz paying their respects to Art!
Oscar is just wonderful. You can find interviews with him on TH-cam and you can come to me place to listen to Oscars records. I have about 40 of them + 20 of Errol Garner
Damn! It like that man possesses three, entirety separate brains! One handles the left hand, one handles the right hand and the third brain assigns them the ideas to carry out. No way to ever beat that!
it gives me goosebumps just listening to oscar talking about art
Art Tatum was special. So was Oscar Peterson who got his inpiration from Art. People like this are rare.
Beautiful post, variations. Thanks!!

Oscar has far more range, virtuosity and creativity than Tatum. It's wonderful they were able to push themselves to that level.
