Magical experience is the the best way to describe it!!! Sometimes he would play the song “Thats All” as his final song of the night. I distinctly remember thinking I didn’t want the night to end.

Just amonth ago I found his " Ballades" CD in a thrift store. Never herd of him I thot so I got it. Well I'm listening to this CD 3-4 times a week! Every song a profound gem. A piano genius since he tosses in riffs u don't expect.

This is traditionally what a jazz listeners would've anticipated hearing during the time period, soulfully straight ahead. If only one would allow himself to openness, true appreciation of the art is made available .

Blue as Junior Mance, swinging as Basie, technical peer of Oscar, not abstruse as Phineas or Tatum, but rhythmically, harmonically, melodic-wise, the leading exponent of piano trio jazz. Such that Ray Brown, first-call bassist on both coasts, offered and actually did play sideman to Harris. Resulting in some of the most inspired readings of standards in catalogue today. The Herb Ellis quartet recordings are worth citing as aural treasures.

OSCAR WITH DIRT UNDER HIS FINGERNAILS! NO FANNIES IN THOSE SEATS. SIMPLY THE BEST. I JUST WATCHED A VIDEO ABOUT TATUM AND NEWBORN, JR. THEY PLAYED WITH EXTRAORDINARY SKILL, LIKE OSCAR, BUT THE PASSION IS MISSING. JAZZ IS ALL ABOUT PASSION, AND GENE RULES THAT ROOST! HE MAKES YOU WANT TO JUMP UP, RAISE YOUR ARMS AND SCREAM.

It's a crying shame that the audience appears to consist mainly of the elderly. Young people don't patronize or support this type of quality musicianship. I suppose Miles Davis figured that out and got into rock and roll??
