Here’s a jazz riddle for you…

He was revered by giants of the keyboard like Oscar Peterson and Art Tatum.

His music probably had more TV airtime than any other jazz musician in history.

I’m going to guess not 1 out of 100 jazz fans can name him.

If want to hear some incredible piano work, get the Mr. Roger DVDs and listen to the beginning and end of every show.

It’s always different and always amazing.

A smart jazz record label would make a multi-CD package out of it.
