Art Tatum is like an insane mathematician with a piano. I'm afraid that sometimes his playing transcends music.

John,
I love Errol Garner & Oscar Peterson too !I recommend that you check out Art Tatum; I think he was big influence on Oscar Peterson.Also, check out Mal Waldron.With the resurgence of the Mellotron, hopefully more artists will try to utilize it effectively in some sort of jazz based music, even though it seems, it was not used that successfully in the past.
