Description
The complete original LP 'The Greatest Piano of Them All' (Verve MGV-8323), showcasing the incredible Art Tatum unaccompanied.
This album, which includes original liner notes by Oscar Peterson, was part of the marathon sessions jazz producer Norman Granz planned for Art Tatum, who at that time was seriously ill and neglected by record companies due to stylistic changes in the music industry. He died on November 5, 1956, at the early age of just 47.
As a bonus, we have added seven tracks from the same session, which were not included on the original LP. Includes a 12-page comprehensive booklet.
