We're lucky Hank Jones took such a good care of himself to be able to play so well at the ripe age of 90. I miss him, Tommy Flanagan, Ray Bryant and other masters i was able to listen to on a regular basis in NYC saloons such as Bradley's and Knickerbocker.

Hank Jones is a wonderful jazz pianist. I'm amazed at his ease with a stride style. He made it his own. Additionally, I think Hank Jones was the most deeply kind and naturally elegant people on this planet! We should all strive to be LIKE him!

He spoke almost as if he'd written out all his thoughts ahead of time and polished them up. I'm sure he could have been an excellent writer or professor of music had he wanted to pursue that. So many jazz musicians have absolutely no facility with verbal communication or explaining historical or technical details. And that's okay...we love them for their musical genius. But Hank had it all!

Leet me share a live moment : Hank Jones was heading a trio at the Lush Life club in the village. Right after the intermission, as he was about to sit back at the piano, suddenly, a piece of the ceiling crashed, and gallons of water pourred down ; he absolutely showed no emotion, and just started playing "Here is that rainy day" in a roar of laughter of the attendance. What a great moment !

His solo piano arrangements are so dense yet everything is in its right place.

The best of them (not that any of them are bad) have not gotten their due. "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'", "It's Me, Oh Lord", "Oh, Look at Me Now," "Sweet Lorraine"...these are just timeless masterworks. "Mornin'" is transcribed in one collection I'm aware of, but Hank's solo stuff really deserves a whole folio for future practitioners to study.

I agree with the comments below about what extraordinary music Hank Jones made on the piano. And, the comments about his grace, kindness, and elegance. Wanted to enlarge a little on the second. He was born in 1918, in Vicksburg MS and was raised in Detroit. That speaks volumes. His poise, confidence, and finesse--that whole manner about him--had to have been forged in the fire. His mastery of his craft, and his personal qualities, are great achievements.

Such solos are the secrets of jazz thinking, they are the keys to the labyrinths of jazz.

Mr. Carter -- I recently heard the concert you and Mr. Jones played in Kobe Japan, the music you made together, and it immediately became one of my favorites. Two spirits so clearly listening to and appreciating each other. You both come to my mind when I think of true musicians and musicianship.

I wish he'd recorded it. I have solo stride versions by Teddy Wilson and Willie the Lion Smith (2 version by Willie), which I can imagine reached Hanks ears when he was young.
