Best Jazz pianist

In addition to Foster_9's list; Bobby Timmons, Sonny Clark, McCoy Tyner,Red Garland, Bud Powell, and Hank Jones.

I would like to add the following, since they were on my playlist today:

1. Les McCann(piano) & Eddie Harris (tenor sax) - 'Swiss Movement'
One of the all time great Jazz performances!! Every track a winner!! I wore out two LPs. Now have it on two CDs, just in case.

2. Randy Weston - 'Volcano Blues'

Other jazz pianists Worth a Look / Listen:
Cyrus Chestnut
Walter Davis Jr.
Marcus Roberts

My all time favourite is Gene Harris (Ray Brown Trio)and others are Keith Jarrett and Gonzalo Rubalcaba.

Many of my favorites have already been mentioned. One who was not is Ramsey Lewis. He is very underrated.

My favorite are probably Bill Evans and Oscar Peterson, depending upon my mood. I also really enjoy Keith Jarrett, Tommy Flanagan, Michel Camilo, Michael Palma, Dan Haerle, and Shelly Berg (amongst many, many others).
