Thanks, sweetie, but I can promise you I haven't a cat in hell's chance of ever playing like Art Tatum...he's the master and I bow before his total superiority
He was blind and the music was in his fingers and his heart...just a one off guy who was completely brilliant...big hugs to you...and hope you enjoyed it...-

Nope. You can do it. I believe you can.

And it is amazing, if not a miracle, that Mr. Tatum can play like that when he was blind.

The man was truly gifted, and anyone who doesn't believe that, I believe, is very dull, and not someone I'd want to associate with.

Oh, yes, that's great music indeed...he was classically trained and would you believe could not get a job in the 1930's as a classical pianist - wrong colour - he always played the classics as practice and played jazz for a living...as a blind man, he was out of this world...big hugs, and so glad you liked it, and hubby says that's why he loves jazz...LOL...

I think, no, I know you can play the piano like this sweet heart.
You have such fire and determination inside you.
