Red Garland!! Every time he plays he brings a "Smokey Nightclub" quality to the bandstand. I'm not too sure how he does this, but I don't hear other piano players playing quite the same way. I became a casual fan of Red through his work with Miles Davis and later John Coltrane. Lately I have been enjoying his fantastic trio albums, am I wrong in thinking I hear some Art Tatum in his playing?? I am really enjoying the album: "It's a Blue World" featuring his regular trio of Art Taylor (drums) and Paul Chambers (bass) I hope you enjoy "Teach me Tonight" from this fantastic record
