the most underrated jazz pianist of them all, garner was the only one who got up to play after tatum had performed, even peterson refused to do that

It's such a delight to watch somebody obviously having such a good time as they're playing.

Erroll was self taught and could not read music. Yet he composed two hit songs of the '60s. The most famous is "Misty". The other is "Dreamy".I saw him in concert at the Lyric Theater in Baltimore in about 1961. He was short so he always sat on a phone book to reach the keyboard. He was the greatest jazz pianist of them all!

My jazz teacher tells me he was self taught all the way. He also said when he met him that he smelled like heavy booze
