Comment:

This mix was inspired by listening to a couple of mixes by Nick Falivena. My favorite Pianists, with apologies to Bud Powell.

I'm glad to be associated with a mix of this caliber, even if I might have traded Roberts for Powell; but then it wouldn't be your mix. "Thelonious" has to be one of his best 'one note' lines. And if you don't like Art Tatum, then you don't like music.

TM is surely one of the extreme greats. I've not listened to Bill Evans in awhile. of course there are so many greats from that era one can't easily list them all!
