Beat me to it. Well played.
I can't believe you didn't go with this.He sure could play. I wonder if he could Hummus a few bars?

Top 10 jazz pianist of all-time. The only ones I would definitely rank ahead of him are:
Art Tatum - Tatum honestly deserves a separate category. He was THAT much better than everyone else, before or since. From another planet.
Thelonious Monk
Bud Powell
Oscar Peterson - (Art Tatum light. Nobody could match Tatum, but I actually LIKE Oscar's playing more)
Herbie Hancock
Bill Evans
Good post. The only other one I would put on this list is Keith Jarrett.
