Love how Ben Riley doesn't even bother using the rack tom. Genius from all players, must say.

indeed
once heard someone suggest Monk plays like he's trying to kill ants on the keyboard

first song is Lulu's Back in Town, which i've discovered is an old classic written for the 1935 musical film Broadway Gondolier

Fats Waller with a version from the same year, with lyrics

another from the godfather Art Tatum, also '35

obviously Tatum was a huge influence on Oscar (and countless others of all instruments)

some say it influenced this song from Booker T

and of course this classic version, also with lyrics

Saw Samara Joy last year. She's fabulous. And although not quite jazz, 83 year old Irma Thomas is appearing.
