Too bad the truly greats have to die at such an early age. EG was truly great with an immediately recognizable style which was totally different than any other jazz pianists. A joy to listen to.

Even though the jazz world seems to have forgotten him, I rate Erroll Garner as one of the best piano players in jazz. His "Misty" is a classic, and no one has surpassed him in this interpretation.

errol garner is clearly one of the top early jazz artists. His music is highly sophisticated yet he plays on the piano as a child wishes to play it. He has a child in him that is played through the piano. You can tell through his music that he is happy and is an optimist. As a self-trained pianist, Errol Gargner was a genius clearly born for the piano.

I gave my purchases as a gift, so I am not aware of the quality, etc. However, I was delighted to find what I wanted since I had been unable to obtain the Garner CDs in our town. The ordering process was easy, and the items arrived in time to gift them.
