The term genius is so trite today. But Fatha Hines was truly a genius. His ability to disassemble the melody of a song and reassemble it into awesome jazz conversation on the piano was the musical equivalent of Picasso. This can be heard in all its greatness in his Paris Sessions works. Enjoy.

It’s interesting that he says that he was hearing jazz played when he was 12. That would have been around 1915, about 2 or 3 years before the “first” jazz record. So clearly there was an improvised music being played long before the 1920s. What an extraordinary all-round musician he was.

Awesome musician! I grew up in Oakland calif and he and his family we all lived in the same neighborhood. Great to hear a true professional musician play his instrument to the highest level and explain what he is playing and how he is playing it in musicians terms...notes...style etc.

Best jazz piano player ever? Art Tatum? too many Notes. Oscar Peterson? love him but love Earl Hines more, Errol Garner? Great, but love fatha Hines even more. What do you think?
@nickyfarrell30242 жыл бұрын
Brother Rohr, Earl Hinds was truly a great pianist but, I like Errol Garner more. I never really got into Art Tatum, I agree with you all the way, too many notes. Actually, Oscar Peterson was my number one, until someone introduced me to Errol Garner back in 1978. I’ve never looked back. Many Blessings my Brother.🙏🏾

In my opinion both Errol Garner and Earl Fatha Hinds are tied for # 1. I’ll still give Erroll Garner a slight edge over Earl Hinds. The only other pianist to come close is Keith Jarrett. All of the rest are miles and miles behind. Oscar Peterson is good, but just to many notes, all technique, but I don’t feel him. I never got Art Tatum, he is like Oscar Peterson just too much. Nat King Cole was a great singer, I’m a big fan of his singing. He was a great pianist, but i just never got into his jazz piano style. But, just my humble opinion.”
