Who is your favorite jazz pianist


With the passing of Oscar Peterson, I thought it would be great to hear some of your favorites. For me no one even came close to Oscar Peterson. He had the speed and agility of Bud and Monk, and the grace of Bill evans and brubeck. He had no equal.

Too many great ones out there: Keith Jarrett, Brad Meldau, Enrico Pieranunzi, John Taylor, Bobo Stenson, Ray Bryant, Paul Bley, Tord Gustavsen, Jessica Williams, Bill Mays, Larry Willis, McCoy Tyner, Frank Kimbrough, John Coates .. and that's just off the top of my head.
I can't believe I forgot Bill Charlap, Hank Jones, and Kenny Barron in my list up above. Probably lots more too (I'm limiting to pianists still alive; at least I hope so). Dave
