This is yet another great vid, but why do great vids always come with stupid comments? Just saying you guys should safe the effort of trying to convince others about the true idols out there. Don't bother!

The more I listen to it, more and more of the subtlety of his playing and the music's underlying rhythmic structure is unveiled. To simply put it: yes, he is Art.

I strongly disagree there was anything Tatum couldn't replicate, and then make better.

Anyone who can argue about who's greater between two of the greatest pianist in the world probably doesn't know the difference between sharp and flat. Art could play stuff Oscar couldn't and Oscar could play stuff Art couldn't. If you listen closely, they have two different styles that can't be compared. STOP BEING GEEKS!!!

if you say so.

Oscar Peterson is a genius. If you can't recognize that, then you are missing out on some great music. Oscar Peterson is second only to Tatum, in both imagination and skill.

Art is a means to measure everything in the world, not a demo of one's attributes. I don't want to go back to the sports comparisons: art is NOT a SPORT. Nor am I interested in obscure meanings of words in order to score points in arguments, which is like sport but not like art. You don't know what art is. No, not everyone who disagrees with me is stupid. You have not disagreed with me anyway: you have simply failed to grasp my point: art is not sport.

is everyone that disagrees with you stupid? the word competitor on webster's revised unabridged is defined as one who seeks what another seeks, and the second obscure meaning is noted as an associate, or confederate. your argument as my tiny brain understood it was that colleagues were not competitors, but by the above definition what could competitors be if not colleagues? going back to the sports comparison you hate so much can you tell me why peyton manning and tom brady aren't colleagues?

OK Oscar Peterson was not a third rate player, in fact a giant of course. He was a great player as Tatum was also. Aggressive? no, exciting? yes. Osacar Peterson paid great respect to Tatum , look at the interview with him and Andre Previn. Oscar said there would probably never be anyone like Tatum but, he was damn close.So don't put him down.Feel free to check my english. That doesnt matter but, do it .You want to but, you are missing the point... |
