 Rating: - His Playing is Magnificent!This is a "must have" cd. Hearing Art Tatum play brings tears to my eyes- Incredible. Rating:  - Art Tatum at his BestPrior to purchasing this CD, I had never heard of Art Tatum. Upon hearing his music, I am delighted to have made this purchase. The songs that I have enjoyed the best are Willow Weep for Me and Love for Sale. Rating: - The Best Of, with Tatum, better be good! It isHaving once had both the original Clef Records entire Tatum solo Masterpiece series, then both Pablo Solo and Group Masterpiece Series (they were stolen a long time back), I balked a little when I saw this billed as "The Best Of..." But I liked the tunes and the personnel, so I jumped, having no Tatum left. I was not at all disappointed. This is a fantastic re-introduction (or introduction) to the genius of this extraordinary pianist. And the sidemen - Buddy Rich, Louis Bellson, Benny Carter, Buddy de Franco, "little Jazz", Jo Jones - GEEZ -it took me a while to remember that all these were originally on the Group Masterpiece Series. This truly is a great intro to "The Best Of Art Tatum" along with sidemen. Try to get at least one Tatum solo ...

Refered to a God, it is evident as I became nearly intoxicated by the smooth and nearly effortless brillance reflected in the great selections found on this disk. Rating: - NO ONE COULD MATCH TATUMTATUM was simply the greatest jazz pianist ever.No one could switch from one key to another at such a speed.It's no wonder that many famous classical pianists came to recognize his unique talent as a soloist.The first time i heard LOVE FOR SALE,i could not beleive that there was only one man playing the piano.This recording is a good sample of his works recorded on NORMAN GRANZ's label PABLO.The way this man played can not be teached,it is a gift from god.As generations go by,pianists come and go,but TATUM remains in a class by himself. |
