Will there ever be a list of the ten essential McCoy Tyner albums? Ten might be too hard, make it 15 (and make sure Atlantis makes the list)!

In reply to Pete. I think Take Five is what keeps Brubeck off these Top Jazz Pianist lists. It's his best-known piece but, after the intro, the piano gets sidelined by the sax and drums. So, if you're not familiar with the rest of his work, or if you think your readers aren't, you pass on Brubeck.

One way of another: Bud Powell ought to be included. So: out goes Ahmad Jamal.

Overall, not bad. It’s just that there are sooo many more, just as folks suggest.

Miss seeing Gene Harris on the list. He is one of our family’s favorite jazz pianists

I’m always surprised that Red Garland is left off these “best of” lists.

I am wrong? Isn’t Michael Petrucciani worth to be included ? There is no discussion about Oscar Peterson or Keith Jarret ,Thelonious Monk or Duke Ellington capabilities and creativity but Petrucciani and Brubeck must be a part of this list.

A pretty good choice. I have seen Oscar Peterson, Duke Ellington, Thelonius Monk, as well as Dave Brubeck (for me, ho hum), Earl Hines ( much more important, than he is given credit for, and one or two others who were pretty good. From the past I might add Fats Walker, Count Basie, Jelly Roll Morton, and one or two stride piano players from the past. Your choice is pretty good.
