Amazing Solo Piano Recordings

Phineas Newborn - 'Solo Piano' originally released by Atlantic (1672) in 1974, now available from Collectables. Some folks find Newborn too self-indulgent (in contrast to Powell, Tatum or Peterson) but this collection of standards allows Newborn to stretch his creative legs and still deliver the requisite homages...not as enjoyable as 'Harlem Blues' or 'A World of Piano' but a good place to get acquainted with a great pianist.

Tsuyoshi Yamaoto, Midnight Sugar:

Not "solo", but a amazing sounding record for piano - I have the three blind mice vinyl. Now out on SCAD as well.

Horowitz Live & Unedited
The Historic 1965 Carnegie Hall Return Concert

Wow!

I enjoyed reading all the choices. If you haven't heard it already: Ito Ema - Goldberg Variations on MA Recordings is extraordinary.
