Comment:

My first mix in quite a while, it seems. This is all solo piano stuff, of the late-night, Moroccan gin-joint variety (hence the clip to start things off).

Play it again, Sam!

As Hank Jones once said about Art Tatum, "When I first heard Art Tatum, they were playing some of his recordings on a radio station in Detroit. I had thought that this was a gag and that they were trying to make us believe that only one man was playing this and I knew that there were at least three or four people playing this. I didn't see how one man could do that. "

Again, in the "credit-where-credit-is-due" spirit, this looks tremendous. I really, really, really, really love that Sun Ra pick of yours and you selected my absolute favorite song & recording by Mr. Monk.
