Amazing Solo Piano Recordings

Dr. John Plays Mac Rebennack - perhaps overlooked however this is a masterpiece worthy of place in any collection. Enjoy!

Agree with many of the others posted here, great thread! Thanks to all for some inspiring suggestions.

A few nice classical recording.
Beethoven piano sonatas, Fischer Annie, Hungaroton,
Bartók, solo piano works, Kocsis Zoltán, Philips,

look for Reference Recordings "Nojima Plays Liszt." Not only is it typical of Reference Recordings, as far as recording quality, the piansm is fantastic. I am particularly fond of the "La Campanella." You can get the CD from Amazon. The CD is pretty good, but the out-of-print LP is even better.

Volados playing Schubert Solo Piano Works, which includes an outstanding version of the Sonata in G major (894). Who would have guessed that Volados could have given such a beautiful rendition - he really dumbed down the showy aspect of his earlier recordings. Excellent recording as well. And on the Sony label no less! Most highly recommended.

I like many of the Jazz and Classical recommendations that have been listed but for something really different try Lyle Mays last solo piano outing. It's unique and interesting.
